Advanced linking of multiple presentations

[Sven Smolders]

Hi all,

I don't know if this is possible but I'm looking for the following:
I have a menu tree spread over different pages looking like this linking to
all the files:
(Slide1) 1
(Slide 2) a ->File1.ppt
b ->File2.ppt
c ->File3.ppt
2 -> File4.ppt
3
(Slide 3) a
(Slide 4) I -> File5.ppt
II
III
b
c
3
... and so on

I divided the presentation in per chapter or subject in different files to
reduce size (500+ slides in total). No problem so far.

The problem is that I have a previous button to go to a higher level and a
menu button to go to the first page of the main presentation.
How can I do this? Two presentations are already open and I want to go to a
different page of the first presentation then the one I used to open the new
one.

Anyone who can help me?

Thank you very much in advance.

Best regards,
Sven

Sven,

I believe you will get in a right mess - as you will have more than 2
presentations open at any one time.

Is there any way you can restructure things, to have just ONE main
presentation that calls up all the others?

Taj,

Thank you for your response.
I'm affraid it's not possible to do this as several people have to work on
this presentation and they can't alter certain parts of the presentation.
Also it will be to much work when something is changed on the menu
structure, etc.

I was thinking in an other direction. Is it possible to use powerpoint with
a fixed header and footer? With some nested presentation in it? Is this
possible?

Thank you

Best regards
Sven
