IMPORTING PICTURES
Hi
Please turn your caps lock off - it looks like your shouting and I'm sure you don't mean to :-) You could use the photo album add-in. See details & alternatives he BATCH IMPORT images into PowerPoint http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00050.htm Or use the Image Importer Wizard http://skp.mvps.org/iiw.htm Lucy -- MOS Master Instructor www.aneasiertomorrow.com.au If this post answered your question please let us know as others may be interested too "ETAN" wrote: I HAVE ABOUT 400 PICTURES THAT I WANT TO PUT ON INDIVIDUAL POWERPOINT SLIDES FOR A SLIDE SHOW.

IMPORTING PICTURES
I found this posting after I submitted one very similar moments ago. The
photo album option only allows up to 4 images on a slide as far as I can see. Is there a way to force 8 or 9 on a slide? The other options are all 3rd party and also involve a fee. I cannot use third party software at my place of employment. I have used a database program that has a function to export images to a powerpoint template (.pot) but the images are resident in the database and my images for this project are small jpgs in a normal directory. Should I look at learning how to write a macro in powerpoint? Are there any options? I have approximately 500 images all jpgs of ~55k in size. this project will repeat again so if I spend a weekend creating the presentation, I would rather spend a weekend learning an automated method rather than copy and pasting or inserting. ANY help would be appreciated.

If you've never done any programming before, I expect it'll be more than a weekend project to do what you're after. ;-) Still, if you can't use 3rd party software, writing your own might be the only reasonable option. On the page Lucy pointed you to, there's at least one link to another page with sample code that might help get you started. The one you want is he Batch Insert a folder full of pictures, one per slide http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00352.htm "aneasiertomorrow" wrote: Hi Please turn your caps lock off - it looks like your shouting and I'm sure you don't mean to :-) You could use the photo album add-in.
