Printing Handouts with timings

[Guest]

Hi, I have rehearsed some timings for my presentation and I would like to be able to print out a Handout (with for example 4 slides per page) that includes the timings that have been recorded for each slide - maybe with each timing appearing just underneath its corresponding time. Is this possible?

This can not be done natively within PowerPoint. Do you know VBA? Oh,
well, than I suppose the next best thing would be to send the slides to
Word, then manually type the timings under the slide or in the notes
section.

Or, if you feel adventurous, enter this code as a macro and run the macro,
then export to Word with notes.

That's the first time spell check completely wiped out what I had typed at
the top. Well it probably knows best, but I'll repeat it anyway.

What I said was, that no, this is not something that PowerPoint can do
natively. The timings can be placed in the notes section (either manually
or with the following code) and the presentation then sent to MS Word for
printing with notes.

Many thanks for your assistance. I wonder would you be able to do one other thing for me please? I seem to have accidentially included my email address in my original note and it is also included in your two responses. I have received a number of emails with viruses today as a result. Would you be able to remove my address from these 3 notes please?

Unfortunately we have no way to do that Jacqueline. Your posts are also
already archived by Google Groups, so removing them here won't really
help much anyway.

You might want to consider getting something like Mailwasher. It's free,
and is good at helping eliminate spam. http://www.mailwasher.net/

I finally had to munge my email address after years and years of using
it on Usenet with only rare problems. The past few months have been just
atrocious, though.

Hello,

PowerPoint doesn't provide the functionality that you are looking for and
even the workarounds (not the exact end result you're looking for) would
require resorting to VBA or add-ins.

If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that it's important that
PowerPoint provide this kind of functionality (without having to resort to
VBA or add-ins), don't forget to send your feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS,
please) to Microsoft at:

As with all product suggestions, it's important that you not just state
your wish but also WHY it is important to you that your product suggestion
be implemented by Microsoft. Microsoft receives thousands of product
suggestions every day and we read each one but, in any given product
development cycle, there are only sufficient resources to address the ones
that are most important to our customers so take the extra time to state
your case as clearly and completely as possible.

IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of
suggestions).
