slide x of y?

[Mike]

Hi, in normal view PP displays "Slide 5 of 23" (Slide <current slide number>
of <slide count>) in the status bar. It's easy to embed the slide count in
the master slide, but I want Slide x of y. There appears to be no feature
that does that. Is a macro the only way to accomplish this? If so, can
anyone provide code to put Slide x of y in the master footer?

Many thanks,
Mike

Mike,
Have a look here for an add-in, curtesy of Bill Dilworth and while you are
at it thank Steve Rindsberg for making it available:
