Re: send to microsoft office powerpoint?

You need to make sure that you have formatted the text in your Word document
using styles. For example, format your Slide Title as Heading 2, 1st level
bullet points as Heading 2, 2nd level bullet poinys as Heading 3, etc.

Then click the Send to PowerPoint toolbar button you have added to the Quick
Access Toolbar. This certainly works on my PC!

Yes! Why doesn't this work? I tried Beth's 1st way, all goes well, but a
blank Powerpoint is the result. I tried the 2nd way, but the menus aren't the
same as what she has described, so that wasn't an option either???

Help!

But when I do that and try to load the result into Powerpoint, it is blank.
Powerpoint says it's loading it - very briefly - but nothing happens.

I gather you are referring to Word 2007 and PPT 2007? If that's the
case then there are two ways you can do this:

1) In Word 2007, right-click the ribbon and select "Customize Quick
Access Toolbar". Display commands from the "Commands Not in the
Ribbon" category, locate "Send to Microsoft Office PowerPoint" and add
the command to your QAT.

2) In PPT, on the Insert tab, open the "Add Slide" gallery and at the
bottom click "Slides from Outline". Navigate to your Word document and
click Insert to create new slides from the content in your Word
document.

Hello,
Does anyone know how I might send a word document to Microsoft
Office
PowerPoint? In Word 2003 that feature was available and I used it
quite
often it was a lot easier than coping from word and pasting to
PowerPoint.
