mystery footer!

[Guest]

I have a mystery footer showing up when I print the notes pages of my
presentation. I had copied some slides from an earlier powerpoint into this
new powerpoint, so I think that might be the issue - but have checked each of
these slides and don't see this previous footer. I also created a new
footer, and did "apply to all" and then the new footer and the old footer are
printed on the handout slides.
I tried to run the macro to remove all footers from a previous question in
this dicussion group:
Sub DrSholls()
Dim oSl As Slide
For Each oSl In ActivePresentation.Slides
oSl.HeadersFooters.Footer.Visible = msoFalse
Next osld
End Sub

and I get an error saying the next command isn't right "osld" and I don't
know how to fix that.
Any ideas on where i can find and remove this myster footer?
Thanks,
Jen

To fix the code, change the line:

Next osld

to

Next oSl

However, you should be able to do this without code. Go to Format >
Masters > Handout Master. It seems that the slides you pasted in have
their own handout master set.
