Hi,
You will defintely need to use an Xtra to embed any
application/presentation into a Director movie. One such Xtra is
MasterApp. There is a how-to on doing it with PowerPoint on the
UpdateStage site at

How to play PowerPoint files from Director using MasterApp Xtra
The code should be very close to what you need. Also there's a
behavior in the behavior lib that lets you specify any app and window
size to embed called "Launch program and position window on stage".
The behavior lib is the first item on the downloads page under
Supporting Materials:

Of course MasterApp does a lot more than this. You can check it out,
along with many other useful Xtras, at www.updatestage.com/xtras.
