Different footers on every other slide - PP07 on Vista

[LisaK]

I have a user who wants 1 footer on odd #ed slides, and a different footer on
even #ed slides. I don't think this can be done, or maybe it can, but not
easily. Am I correct or not? Thank you.

This cannot be done automatically. When your presentation is finalized,
insert a text box with the footer text on a slide and copy it to every other
slide, do the same with the second footer text.

Best regards,

You can do this in 2007 fairly easily

Manually

Use ctrl click to select all odd slides and then insert > headers & footers.
Tick footer and add the text click apply (not apply to all)

Do the same but with even slides

This doesn't actually take very long but if you have a huge number of slides
or do this regularly it can also be done in code in seconds
