Strikethrough word in powerpoint

Does anyone know if Powerpoint has a strikethrough word
option? I know Word does, but not for Powerpoint.

Thanks
 
I got this to work by entering text in MS Word (including strikethroughs and
colored fonts) and then copying the text from MS Word to PowerPoint. In
PowerPoint, use Paste Special (instead of just Paste) and select MS Word
Document Object. I am using PowerPoint2003, so I'm not sure if this will
work in earlier versions.

update as soon as possible. From PowerPoint, choose "Help -> Check for
Updates".]

Hello Travis,

PowerPoint does not have the specific capability that you are looking for,

If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that PowerPoint should
provide additional font formatting capabilities (strike-through, double
underline, etc.), don't forget to send your feedback to Microsoft at:

As with all product suggestions, it's important that you not just state
your wish but also WHY it is important to you that your product suggestion
be implemented by Microsoft. Microsoft receives thousands of product
suggestions every day and we read each one but, in any given product
development cycle, there are only sufficient resources to address the ones
that are most important to our customers so take the extra time to state
your case as clearly and completely as possible.

IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of
suggestions)
