PowerPoint 2003 - Misc - Create a Duplicate of the Current Slide

SUMMARY: Don't repeat formatting and animation settings in each slide of a PowerPoint 2003 presentation - just duplicate a slide.

Have you spent a long time creating a slide in a Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 presentation, complete with custom graphics, backdrops, sounds, and animation? If you need a new slide similar to the current one, are you not feeling like manually duplicating all of that effort? You don't need to!

It's easy to create a duplicate slide from any slide in your current presentation. This way, you can create one slide and customize it to your heart's content, then make duplicate slides, only changing text, graphics, animations, and multimedia as necessary.

1. In the left pane of PowerPoint, select the "Slides" tab if it has not already been selected.

2. Click on the slide to duplicate.

3. Select "Insert" - "Duplicate Slide".

4. Your new duplicate slide will appear underneath your selected slide.
