Stream to the client and open in PowerPoint

When you pass an HttpResponse object to Save, PowerPointWriter will stream the generated PowerPoint file to the client. The browser will display a File Download dialog asking the user to open or save the file. The method's second parameter specifies a file name to display in the File Download dialog. If the method's third parameter openInBrowser is false and the user chooses to open the Excel file, the file will open in Microsoft PowerPoint.

            //--- Stream to the client
            //--- "Output.pptx" will appear in the Save As dialog
            //--- The file will open in PowerPoint
            pptTemplate.Save(Page.Response, "Output.pptx", false);

            '--- Stream to the client
            '--- "Output.pptx" will appear in the Save As dialog
            '--- The file will open in PowerPoint
            pptTemplate.Save(Page.Response, "Output.pptx", False)
