Powerpoint Wordcount

[Seamus Connolly]

Can Powerpoint give you a word count? If so how?
Thanks.
Seamus

Hi Seamus,

It's a tricky method. Find the file properties. For example, in 2007, it is
Microsoft Office Button| Prepare| Properties| Document Properties button.

Then look of the "Words" section on the "Statistics" tab!

Seamus,
What Glen said.
In PowerPoint 2003, it's File - Properties - statistics tab.
Or use this add-in:
