Apologies if this is a duplicate post.
You might be able to do it by CFExecuting an OSA script:
Here's some info on the Mac using AppleScript (Apple's OSA scripting

http://www.apple.com/applescript/powerpoint/
It says you can create and edit slides!
Since MS put the hooks into PowerPoint, I assume they have an OSA
scripting facility that can exploit them.
