Need help on adding slides from a different presentation please

[January66]

I have recently purchased a new PC that came with Vista. The PPT creation is
very different from XP. It is definitely not user friendly.

I need to add PPT slides from one presentation to another. The instructions
in Microsoft Office Help are unclear or incorrect. It says to go to the pane
that is titled "Reuse Slides". I cannot find it. I printed out the
instructions that are labled "Tabs" and this does not relate to my screen.

Please HELP! I am going crazy.

Hi

This is not to do with vista and Windows XP. It sounds like you now have PP
v2007 which is different to earlier versions.

With the tabs across the top select HOME (it may already be selected)

Use the drop down arrow on NEW SLIDE (second left) and you wioll see reuse
slides at the bottom.

From the pane that opens navigate to your file.

I wrote a step by step tutorial on this very thing (merging slides
from different presentations) you can read it here:
