PPT98: How to Copy Multiple Slides into a Word Document. (188914)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft PowerPoint 98 Macintosh Edition
This article was previously published under Q188914

SYMPTOMS

If you copy more than one slide from the Slide Sorter and paste it into a non-PowerPoint file, such as a Word document, you see only the first slide. If you double-click the image of the first slide, PowerPoint starts and runs a slide show of the slides that you copied.

CAUSE

PowerPoint provides two kinds of OLE objects: slides and presentations. Both types of objects appear in your Word document as a single slide. You create a PowerPoint slide object by copying a single slide from the Slide Sorter and pasting it into another document. You create a PowerPoint presentation object by copying several slides from the slide sorter and pasting them into another document.

RESOLUTION

To have more than one slide image appear in your Word document, copy and paste single slides (one at a time) from Slide Sorter view.
