Sequencing More than One PP Presentation

[Chaplain Doug]

PowerPoint 2003. I am preparing for our annual conference and have to run
the computer that will do the PowerPoint presentations. I have easily a
dozen PowerPoint files that will be used. Is there a way to organize these
files (sequence them) so that I can set up the order in which they will
appear and have them loaded automatically rather than having to browse for
each file and load it on the fly? Thamnks for any help.

There is a neat alternative which I like. Again make a plain slide with the
names of all the speakers on it. You can place them in boxes if you wish.

Save each presentation to a folder but [important] save them as .pps files
(PowerPoint Show). Highlight each speaker's name in your master slide and
insert a hyperlink to the PPS file relevant to that speaker.

Now start with the master slide. When you click on the name, the first slide
for that speaker will appear. When they are finished, after the black last
slide, the show will revert to your master, ready for the next speaker. If
your speakers change order, it makes no difference!
