Works in Microsoft PowerPoint versions 2000 and 2003
If you've taken any presentation training, you've probably heard this:
Tell 'em what you're going to tell 'em.
Tell 'em.
Tell 'em what you told 'em.
One way to "Tell 'em what you're going to tell 'em" is to have an overview slide at the beginning of your presentation.
PowerPoint offers a quick way to create a slide that contains the headings from all of the slides in your presentation.
* Make sure your outlining toolbar is visible.
Click on the View menu, Select Toolbars, then Outlining.
* Select the slides whose titles you want to use in your outline. In slide sorter bar, which is usually on the left hand side of your screen, select the first slide. Hold down the SHIFT key as you select the last slide. If you need to select non-adjacent slides, use the CTRL key instead.
On the Outlining toolbar, click the Summary Slide icon.
A new slide, with bulleted titles from the selected slides, appears in front of the first slide in your selection.
