Do they need to display in the browser? If so, the best bet is save as HTML
and link the content up that way. It works for all browsers without issue.
With IE, you have options, esp. for PowerPoint, by setting up MIME types on
the website. Serving the file can be as simple as a link or using a binary
read/write to the stream.

If you actually have to embed the file, the HTML route is by far the
easiest. If not an option, I would consider looking for a third party
component that allows you to embed the file either in something like flash
or in the page.
