PowerPoint 2000

Introduction

By the end of the lesson, students should be able to:

• Use the slide sorter view
• Move, copy, and delete slides

Working with Slides

Slides can be moved, copied, or deleted. You can also move or copy a slide to another presentation. The best view for completing this task is the Slide Sorter View. This view shows a miniature of each slide.

Moving, Copying and Deleting Slides

Working with slides in Slide Sorter View is a fairly easy task.

To move a slide:

• Click the Slide Sorter View button.
• Select the slide to be moved by pressing and holding down the left mouse button.
• Once the slide is selected, drag it to the new location.

To copy a slide:

• Press Ctrl and choose the slide.
• Drag the slide to the new location.
• When you copy a slide, the mouse pointer becomes a slide icon. Release the mouse button and a duplicate of the slide appears.

To delete a slide:

• Click on the slide.
• Press Delete on your keyboard.

Challenge!

• Open the GCFLearnFree.org presentation (created as Unit Assignment 1) or another existing presentation.
• Practice moving, copying and deleting a slide.
• Remember, you can always press undo if you move, copy or delete something that you didn't mean to change.
