How do I insert a file as an icon?
I have a document into which I have inserted an Outlook message which
appears as an icon that readers can click to open and read. I want to do the same with a PowerPoint presentation, but when I insert the file, slide 1 of 3 is incorporated in my document as a picture, and the other slides are no where to be seen. How can I insert the presentation such that it appears as an icon that the reader can click to open and view? |

Thanks garfield-n-oldie
Any suggestions as to where I could find a PowerPoint Icon to replace the 'box of tricks' which I assume is the default? "garfield-n-odie [MVP]" wrote in message ...

How do I insert a file as an icon?
The default *is* to use the associated app's standard icon - in the case of
PPt it looks like a dogeared sheet of paper with the PPt logo superimposed on it's upper left portion. If you're getting something else could it be that the system you're working on _doesn't_ have PPt installed? What do you mean by "box of tricks"? -- Regards |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "Chris Mitchell" wrote in message ...
