Powerpoint Script

[Chris from Michigan]

In older versions of powerpoint you used to be able to have a script that
would play multiple powerpoints without having to load a single large
powerpoint in to memory.....

i dont remeber how the script was but it would work like this

load part 1 [when the last slide of part 1 was viewed part 2 would load]
load part 2
load part 3


Is this possible in the newer versions of Powerpoint

Chris,

It's called linking....

see THE original powerpoint tutorial on linking together multiple
presentations

Are you thinking of a playlist? The PowerPoint 97 Viewer can open a playlist,
but
I don't think PowerPoint has ever been able to. The PowerPoint 2003 Viewer can
open a playlist from the command line.

The PowerPoint Viewer 2003 can play such scripts.
