Can flowcharts created in powerpoint be imported to visio 2003?

[KESB]

I need to convert a flowchart created in powerpoint to visio 2003 with the
ability to edit individual shapes inside. I have 110 powerpoint pages and
would be too large to manually re-create.

Unfortunately PPT and Visio do not use the same internal structure.

It is not possible to export - but you can copy and paste and then go ahead
with your changes - when you paste - you will need to double click into it to
be able to edit

110 pages! As the others have pointed pointed out this isn't in-built
functionality, but you code do this with code.

(Paul, this has to be something for your Utilities isn't it? "Import Office
shapes to Visio"?)

Best regards

Hi John, mmmm, that would be a good idea. Can the Powerpoint API
export such data? I've often seen similar requests for conversion from
Word/Excel shapes and the response has been "can't be done".

Might be better as a stand-alone utility.
