I am creating a template and want o be able to insert individual slides from
powerpoint into the template and link the slaide number to a macro so it is
all a one shot deal. How can I do that?

Click Insert on the menu and select OBJECT. In the next dialog box, click
the FROM FILE tab, click the LINK TO FILE checkbox, click the BROWSE button
and locate the PowerPoint file.

This embedded object can be double clicked on to move between slides in the
presentation.

Kevin, the OP wants to place indiviudual slides, and - I guess - thinks of
them as static graphics.

How about this: Pick the Powerpoint slide in edit mode, then with nothing
selected, type a CTRL-A inside the slide (in edit mode). Navigate to the
target page in Word, create a text box to fit as needed into the layout, then
place the cursor inside the text box, then finally a CTRL-C to place the
slide image into the text box.

I use this for my elementary teaching and would appreciate any suggestion of
better process!

OK, better way, someone?

Thanks Kevin,
when I double click on the silde, it takes me directly into the slideshow.
How then can I pull say slide 30 of 75 into my word document and program word
to pull out any slide number from the given slideshow file? Hope that makes
senese.
