Inserting PowerPoint into Word

[Brenda from Michigan]

I've read that within a Word 2002 document you can click on Insert | Object |
Create from File and in this way insert a PowerPoint presentation into your
Word document. When I follow these steps I only get the first slide, not the
entire presentation. Is there a step that I am missing, or is this not the
way to insert a whole preesentation (multiple slides) into a document?

Not sure about PowerPoint 2002, but in 2003 there is an option on the File
menu, Send to... Microsoft Word, you will get options as to what you want to
see. I tend to you Notes next to Slides, this produces a table, which then
the slide images can be extracted.
Hope this helps.

I have some 'tips' that I've accumulated over the years from several sources.
One of these sources, perhaps 'Journal something...' gave a tip about the
Insert | Object. This purportedly inserts an entire presentation, not just a
slide. Since I can only get a single slide, I'm wondering if/what I'm doing
wrong.

I'm aware of the Sendto option. Thanks for your input.

Try double-clicking the slide (or icon); this should start the display of the
embedded presentation. Left click to move from slide to slide and ESC to end
the presentation.

Inserted objects cannot span pages. The only option is to insert a link.
