Sort slides alphabetically based on title box in each slide?

[Guest]

If I have a number of slides - all based on a master slide - (they are all
laid out exactly the same way - just with different text) - is there a way to
select all slides in thumbnail and then resort them alphabetically based on
the word(s) in the title box in each slide. Or....sort them some other way
even - alphabetically would be preferable, but isn't necessary if there was
another constant sort possibility.

Thanks,

Matt

This can be done using a macro. Are you familiar with VB programming? VBA
can also randomize the order of your slides, and change the order of your
animations.

Check out the PPT FAQ for beginning VBA tips.

I actually have Tushar Mehta's Randomizing Macro and love it. Has somebody
already done an alpha sort macro? I'll search the net, but let me know if
you are familiar with one. If not I'll look into the FAQ and see what I can
pull off on my own if it's within my capabilities.

Thanks again Bill!
