Hi Jan
On top of what Paul has already advised:
If you had a direct link to the PDB file, there is no equivalent
solution with Jmol (but see point 3 below).
You must have a webpage to embed the Jmol applet into it. Then, you
can either
1. link to that webpage from PowerPoint
2. embed the webpage inside PowerPoint as Paul suggests, using
LiveWeb. Note, however, that this approach:
a. still requires that you write the webpage
b. only works in Windows
c. only works in computers that have the LiveWeb installed
The webpage could be designed to be only one and load any model using
a "search" parameter in its URL (such as loadmodel.htm?1abc.pdb).
In any case, be aware that JmolApplet access to the hard disk is
limited by Java security restrictions. You should have the applet at
the root or top folder of all your models, or use the signed version
of the applet.
3. There is the possibility that you could indeed associate .pdb and
.mol extensions to Jmol application (not applet), and so maybe the
direct links from PowerPoint could work by opening Jmol (instead of
IE). There are instructions for this in Jmol Wiki:
