Re: Open word document using "open with" Powerpoint

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Your explanation in the office.misc group is more complete, so I've responded over there.

This works however it also works if i set the text to heading level 2. When
power point opens the document it opens it and each slide has two text boxes
and depending on which heading level I use puts the text in the appropiate
text box. I want to have powerpoint open the document and only have one text
box on each slide. Do you know how to do that?

In Word's Ouline view, set all your text to Heading Level 1
