bookmark in ppt

I have around 80 slides and most of them are text. It is hard to remember the
place of slides. I have difficulty finding the proper slide for amendment.
Does ppt has a bookmark to mark the desired slides

Rasoul,
I don't know of any Bookmark but here is my Low-Tech way of doing it.

I make Chapter Title Slides. I use the Hide Slide feature so they d
not show up during the presentation. I break the presentation up int
sections and each section starts with a Title Slide. The Title Slid
has a very brief description of the type of information on the upcomin
slides.

I make the color of my Title Slide a different color that the slides i
the show to make them stand out and easy to find.

I hope that this helps or that someone with a better answer responds.

Sure, put an object (text, box, whatever) on the slide and then create a
hyperlink to the slide you want it to jump to.

By book mark, I mean to be able to find the target slide very fast among 100
slides. What Myers mentioned is hyperlink to jump from one slide to another
one.
In word we can put book marks so we open the file by choosing that book mark
we can jump to target line just by a click without a need to scroll and
search. I am looking for a function similar to this in ppt.
what dslocum mentioned is sort of grouping slides according to their
chapters which is still far from what I am looking for.
Eveery day I add some slides (not necessarily to end of file). Next day I
have difficulty to find where was my last inserted slide.

Yes, you hyperlink the the desired slide. There is no scrolling or
searching involved. I am not certain what it is your looking to do here.
You can set PPT to start on any slide you like and I would build a "menu"
slide with the links as desired.

Dear Austin
Thanks for your reply. Could you please let me know how can I start ppt from
the desired slide. Also you mentioned about making "menu". Could you please
explain more about this issue. I don't think you are talking about the list
of slides appearing in left pane of ppt.
TIA

It doesn't look difficult to put bookmark still strange why MS has not done
that. BTW do you think it would be possible to do so by aid of a macro?
