Import a folder of pictures to PowerPoint slides

My father has a project he's doing for presentation to a local historical society. Part of this project appears to involve documenting a bunch of photos, and also presenting them. He asked me the other day to give him a tutorial on adding photos to PowerPoint slides, at which point he'd take about 120 photos and manually place them.

Thinking of doing anything manually in MS Office made me cringe a bit. So I offered to build him a VBA macro to place the photos for him, provided that he populate a folder with all the images he wanted, then he could hit a button, pick the folder, and get a PowerPoint presentation with all his pictures placed.

Anyone who's written VBA for PowerPoint could figure out how to do this in a trice, but here I've provided an unlocked PPT file with all the code you need.

It seems to work fine for me, and you can do what you want with it.
