Using prefabricated templates

[Todd]

I am a teacher using a CD-ROM that came with my new textbook. This CD has
Powerpoint presentations that can be edited for content. However, whenever I
copy and paste to a new presentation, I only get the content, not the
template or the background, and it does not look the same way. Thus, I am
having to delete slides I do not want for individual presentations (time
consuming as there are 700 premade slides). There has to be a way to get the
WHOLE slide (content, template, and background) to copy and paste into a new
presentation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

(I need to make a correction -- this feature is available in PPT 2002 and
2003.)

Otherwise, check the other links at the top of the page.

John,

Thanks so much for your help. Your suggestion worked perfectly and will be
useful when I am editing these presentations.
