i wanna

Apr 17, 2007 5:42PM PDT

i'm taking class that prof. uses lots of PPT teaching note. I'm sick of opening all the file to find the page i'm looking for. So, I want to make just 1 ppt file that contains all the files. Is there any easy and fast way to do it other than 'copying and pasting'? I use office 2007.

Re: combine powerpoint presentations
Apr 17, 2007 7:44PM PDT

I didn't know how to do it, but I asked google:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=combine+powerpoint+presentations

And google seems to know.

With Office 2007 being only recently released, it seems difficult to find instructions to do this in Powerpoint 2007. So you might need to study the inbuilt help (search for 'combine' or 'merge'), experiment with the new ribbon structure or browse through Microsofts online help at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint/FX100648951033.aspx?CTT=96&Origin=CL100626991033

I don't think Microsoft deliberately left this out of the new version of Office, so I'm rather sure you'll succeed in the end.

Hope this helps.

Finding the slides.... elementarily....
Apr 19, 2007 11:39PM PDT

If it is "finding a slide" you want, then creating a slide with a list of hyperlinks to the other slides(or a whole preentation) would be a solution. The hyerlinks would of course be a short description of the slides, so it would be easy to find the one you want. This is different from "combinding presentations". It is easy, but maybe not so fast creating the slide, but once done, it's a breeze bringing up the silde you require. Hope this is what you are looking for.
