Calendar Insert into PPT

[Joel B. Kohm]

What is the best way to create a slideshow with a month-a-slide covering a
10 year span 1995 to 2005? The simple calendar shareware programs create
monthly calendars which don't appear to insert readily into PPT.

Joel,

I don't know what standard practice is but...

I went into Outlook, selected a whole month, saved as a web page to my hard
drive, and used Live Web to insert the web page into PowerPoint.

The advantage to me was I could choose whether I also saved all my
appointments or not. Now, you will have to save multiple months, though.

An alternative is to use a calendar control, but that is not my area.

One simple, labor intensive way is to use any calendar program you like and
capture a screen shot for each month (using the Alt-PrtSc key combination).
This will capture the screenshot to the windows clipboard. Simply paste the
image into PowerPoint and resize and crop as desired. Yes, you would need to
do this 120 times.

From Microsoft Word XP Help --

Create a calendar:
1. On the File menu, click New.
2. In the New Document task pane, under New from template, click
General Templates.
3. Click the Other Documents tab.
4. Double-click Calendar Wizard. If you do not see this wizard in the
Templates dialog box, you might need to install it.
5. Follow the steps in the wizard.

Hope this helps,
Tony
