Hi
Is there a way to add a text including page number on the note page that
will appear on all note pages and still appear if I transfer any slides of
that presentation to an other one. I need to remember where it was taken from
and the text would say it.
Thanks to all
 
you mean do it on every slide manually

Insert a text box on the notes page and type the slide number (and even the name
of the presentation if you like). You'd have to do it manually; there's no
automatic slide number feature that'd work the way you want it to.

thanks
I was doing something similar in master notes adding text box in the text
box underneath the slide. It did show on each slide but when transfered to an
other presentation everything was lost
 
how can I reduce the font to 14 in your macro

Steve Rindsberg said:
On every slide where you want this information, yes.

Or a macro could automate the task.

Sub JugateSlideNumbers()

Dim oSl As Slide
Dim oSh As Shape

For Each oSl In ActivePresentation.Slides
With oSl.NotesPage.Shapes
Set oSh = .AddTextbox(msoTextOrientationHorizontal, 10, 10, 500, 50)
With oSh.TextFrame.TextRange
.Text = "Slide: " & CStr(oSl.SlideIndex) _
& " from " & ActivePresentation.FullName
End With
End With
Next

End Sub

I had found it and put at the right place
thanks anyway
Is there a video or something that shows how to build the code as I go,
giving available options as you write each command in a little windows
 
thanks so much for all the help

There's Intellisense, which gives you the various options for each object as you
type it's name. For example, as you typed .Font. you should have seen a popup
window showing Size, Name and other properties.

If not, while in the VBA editor, choose Tools, Options, Editor tab and start by
putting a checkmark next to *everything*. It's all Good For You. <g>

In 2003 and previous, there's the Macro Recorder, which generally creates code
that's not generally useful but it can show you how to access various features in
your own code.

Other than that, I don't know of anything that walks you step by step through
programming in PPT.

my intellisense does not work for me . Is there a switch somewhere to
activate it?
