Convert all "Worksheet Objects" to images in powerpoint

Really not sure what stack site to place this on. Feel free to move it to the correct one. My question isn't really related to programming, but I have a ton of power points with these "Worksheet Objects" embedded in the slides. Some appear to be graphs from excel as well as other chart type items from Visio. I need to convert all these "Worksheet Objects" to just images within the slide.

My process right now is copy the object > Paste as Image > Move to the correct location > Delete the "Worksheet Object". It's a very time consuming and tedious process. Is there a macro I can write or something that can convert all these objects automatically? I tried googling and no luck so far

Solution

This should get you started:

Sub ConvertAllShapesToPic()
    Dim oSl As Slide
    Dim oSh As Shape

    For Each oSl In ActivePresentation.Slides
        For Each oSh In oSl.Shapes
            ' modify the following depending on what you want to
            ' convert
            Select Case oSh.Type
                Case msoChart, msoEmbeddedOLEObject, msoLinkedOLEObject
                    ConvertShapeToPic oSh
                Case msoPlaceholder
                    If oSh.PlaceholderFormat.ContainedType = msoEmbeddedOLEObject _
                        Or oSh.PlaceholderFormat.ContainedType = msoLinkedOLEObject _
                        Or oSh.PlaceholderFormat.ContainedType = msoChart _
                        Then
                        ConvertShapeToPic oSh
                    End If
                Case Else

            End Select
        Next
    Next

End Sub

Sub ConvertShapeToPic(ByRef oSh As Shape)
    Dim oNewSh As Shape
    Dim oSl As Slide

    Set oSl = oSh.Parent
    oSh.Copy
    Set oNewSh = oSl.Shapes.PasteSpecial(ppPasteEnhancedMetafile)(1)

    With oNewSh
        .Left = oSh.Left
        .Top = oSh.Top
        Do
            .ZOrder (msoSendBackward)
        Loop Until .ZOrderPosition < oSh.ZOrderPosition
    End With

    oSh.Delete

End Sub
