Getting
Started
Converting
a Word Outline to a PowerPoint Presentation
If you
have an outline that you created inside of another program,
such as Microsoft Word, you can open that file so that PowerPoint
will convert it to a presentation. When you open a file, simply
change the File Type to "All Outlines at the bottom of the
screen.
The outline
created should use tabs to designate one level from the next.
If you are using Microsoft Word, you can also assign the Heading
styles to each level in your outline. If you have already
started your presentation, you can use the Insert: Slides
from Outline option to accomplish the same task. Here is a
sample outline.

When we
choose the Insert: Slides from Outline menu, we then choose
the file from the list as if we were opening it. Here is the
result in Slide Sorter View.
