cross slide counting?
Hello All, I have a presentation in which on several slides numbers in a
standard place holder are being updated frequently (edited in 'Normal mode'). On the final slide it would be nice if the 'over all grand total' would be presented. So, is it possible to have a kind of 'cross slides counting'? (and when new slides are inserted in between the counted slides, that those are taken into total account automatically?) Thanx! Guurt

Sure, it is something for me, it just is not the solution I am looking
for... I need a kind of Excel calculator across PowerPoint slides....I think... but thanks anyway!

You could delete the slide number placeholder from all master slides then
create an additional master slide that does have the placeholder. Apply this to the last slide using Format | Slide Design and choose that from the "used in this presentation" part of the task pane. Then use View | Header and Footer and tick the box to show the slide number. Also tick the "don't show on title" box. This should apply a slide number to only the last slide, at which point the total number of slides would show. -- Echo [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/powerpointannoy/ "Guurt" wrote in message ...

cross slide counting?
Thanks Echo, but it is not the slide number, nor the number of slides I want
to count. I want to make a calculation of the sum of certain numbers (data) that are typed in by hand in 'normal mode' in place holders on certain slides in a presentation, and have the sum presented on the final slide. So, a calculation of the sum of those numbers that are typed throughout the whole presentation. ....hope this question is more clear...or am I asking something weird...?..

cross slide counting?
Ah, that makes it more clear. I completely didn't understand what you were
asking. PowerPoint doesn't have anything like this. I don't know if it's doable with VBA or not. Probably is, but I'm not a coder, so I couldn't even tell you how to begin. You know, I wonder if PPTMerge might work here. Basically, you'd type all the stuff into Excel, then populate textboxes in PPT with that information. http://www.pptools.com/merge/index.html -- Echo [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/powerpointannoy/ "Guurt" wrote in message ...
