PowerPoint 2000 import questions

[M Skabialka]

1) How do you import a Title Master including all the colors, graphics and
formatting from one presentation to a new one under development? When I
tried I got the text but none of the background color and images.

2) How do you insert a completely blank slide, without any of the Slide
Master format that is needed on all of the other slides?

Thanks,
Mich

PPT 2000 doesn't really have multiple master capability. See multiple design
templates workarounds at http://www.echosvoice.com/multipletemplates.htm

Thsnks,

I had hoped there was an easy way to do this. Looks like I'm going to be
copying the presentation with the master I like and importing all the new
slides into it.
Seems as though copying slide or title masters should be an option though -
Microsoft - are you listening?

Yeah, MS listened. Multiple masters is a feature in PPT 2002 (aka PPT
XP) and 2003.
