Hi Aimee,
Since you are unable to add the Excel sheet in your presentation using "mlreportgen.ppt", doing the same using ActiveX controls can help as a workaround.
You can open an existing PowerPoint presentation through MATLAB using the "actxserver" function as illustrated below:
% Define the path to your PowerPoint file and Excel file
pptFilePath = 'presentation.pptx';
excelFilePath = 'excelSheet.xlsx';
% Open PowerPoint application
pptApp = actxserver('PowerPoint.Application');
pptApp.Visible = true;
% Open the PowerPoint presentation
presentation = pptApp.Presentations.Open(fullfile(pwd, pptFilePath));
Then, you can using PowerPoint's ActiveX commands to access the target slide and using the "slide.Shapes.AddOLEObject" method to embed the Excel sheet as an OLE object in the slide.
You can refer to the below documentation for more information:
Hope this helps!
