Part of the answer depends on what version of PowerPoint you have, but the
basic answer is to create a new, blank presentation and use Insert--> Slides
from file into that presentation.
If you are using PPT 2002 or 2003, you can keep the original formatting by
checking the "Keep source formatting" check box at the bottom of the slides
from file dialog. If you are using 2000 or 97, you will need to either keep
the presentations separate to retain the formatting and link them up, or
merge them all to one format.
Let us know which version of PPT and whether you want to keep the original
formatting or make them all look the same and more details can be provided.
