Inserting Slides Between Presentations . . .


David Quinn, a VERY positive and energetic Art Teacher at Irvin High School, uses PowerPoints frequently in his classroom. He was interested in learning how to insert slides from one presentation into another presentation and maintain the ability to edit text in each inserted slide.

Thought I would share the following Tech Tips that I shared with David as he was pleased to know that he could actually insert slides between multiple PowerPoints.

Word 2003:

1. Open presentation you would like to insert slides into.
2. Navigate to the slide after/before the place you want to insert a slide
3. Click the Insert menu and select Slides from Files
4. Click the Browse… button
5. Choose the presentation that has the slide you want to insert. Click to select
it, and click the Open button.
6. From the display of slides, click the slide you would like to insert.
7. Click Insert (after inserting all desired slides, click the Close button)

Because some people are visual learners, here is a video for inserting slides between PowerPoints (2003):



Word 2007:

1. Open the presentation that you would like to insert slides to.
2. Click the Home Tab and select the New Slide button arrow, and then select the Reuse Slides
3. Click Browse (see right side of screen) and then select Browse File
4. Select the slide(s) you want to insert
5. Right click on a slide to see additional options.
