| 285608 | 2004-10-28 05:26:00 | Somehow or other I have managed to work on two separate copies of the same presentation and now I need to combine them into one complete version. I found out before I had gone too far, and I've been looking for a method of transferring or copying about 20 slides from one version to the other. I don't want to have to recreate each slide from scratch, but I will if I have to. Any ideas from the experienced PPers out there? As before I am using PP 2000. Spence :( |

Copy each slide and paste into the new presentation, only taking the latest update from the respective version. There is no way I know of to "merge" the presentations as it would not be apparent to any program which slides were the ones you needed. OR Copy all the slides from one version into the other, then delete the old versions of each slide. manually change the order as you do so, in slide sorter view. Just highlight them all in slide sorter view - copy - open the other presentation in slide sorter view - paste. There are only 20 slides (or 20+20) so its not a big job. |

| 285610 | 2004-10-28 10:06:00 | Thank you Godfather. I sort of paniced a bit there and assumed that copy and paste would be an image not all the data for the slide. I went looking for an "export slide to another presentation" feature to start with, and when I didn't find one I got a bit desperate. I was feeling like a bit of an idiot at the time but I've settled down now. Spence |
