Can PP 2007 Handle A Large (Family Reunion) Presentation?

[MargaretA]

Can PowerPoint 2007 presentation handle about a dozen .mp3 files and maybe
500 .jpg files?

Margareta,
I realize this is PPT forum, but have you considered using a Web album such
as Google's Picassa Web Album which has a redimentary slide show built-in and
anyone in your family can access from anywhere?

We did this for our class reunioin which had 600 individual images, plus
other photos, and a couple of movies taken with a digital camera.

Probably - but it's perhaps better to use some other software especially
made to picture slideshows.

If you do go down the powerpoint route... besure to resize you pictures to a
manageable size - and don't just insert them straight from your digital
camera pictures. As they will be too much resolution.

and for inserting many pictures
BATCH IMPORT images into PowerPoint

and for your sounds
Play sounds across multiple slides (A WAV runs through it)
