How can I take a very long block of already copied text and have PowerPoint
divide and insert the copied text automatically across a presentation. Have
any of you found a way to do this using PowerPoint 2003? Every time I try to
paste a big chunk of text, it puts the oversize chunk on just one slide,
where I can not view all of the text in a slide presentation, and it takes
too long to individually cut and paste each chunk of text into each slide.
 
Paste the text into a placeholder. Change to Outline View (the easiest way
to do this is to select the Outline tab instead of the slide miniature tab
to the right of the slide in normal view). Put your cursor where you want
the text split. Press the enter key on your keyboard. You should now have a
blank line in your outline. Press Shift-Tab on your keyboard. That line will
become an empty title placeholder on a new slide. Move down to where you
want the next slide split to be and repeat the process.
