How to copy several slides simultaneously from powerpoint to words

[xppuser]

Dear all,

Office 2003 SP1 & Windows XP Pro SP2,

When I used Office 97 and W98SE, I used to be able to select several slides
from the slides/outline pane (Ctrl and click select) in PowerPoint 97 and
then Edit -> Paste Special -> Picture (Windows Metafile) in Word 97. Now, it
seems when I did it with Office 2003 suite and Windows XP Pro, only the first
slide get pasted but not the remaining. Is it possible to do what I wanted to
do with Office 2003 and Windows XP? Thanks for your advice.

PS: I searched the newsgroup but what they have was Select and Send to
Words, which included each slide and notes as separate, or just to send
notes. Neither was what I wanted.

Try File > Send to > MS Office Word instead. See if it works for you.

Apology, missed out your personal note.
You might want to delete the lines manually, or,

Click File > Save As. Under Save as type, select a picture format (e.g. jpg).
Then go to MS Word, click Insert > Picture > from file.
Highlight all the pictures you want to insert and click OK.

hi tohlz,

Thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately File -> Save As -> picture
format is not available in my powerpoint (Office 2003). Would appreciate
further idea/advice.

Thank you again to Steve and tohlz, your suggestions worked (not the way I
used to with Office 97 but worked nevertheless) - I am not sure what was
going on with my machine but I saw what you meant when I did it on a
different machine. It is all sorted now by a simple switching on-off of my
machine.
