Transfering slides from old powerpoint files to new one with tabs
Hi. I have a new powerpoint file with tabs to assist navigating back and forth.
I want to import some slides from some old powerpoint files into a specifc tabbed section of the new file.
When I copy a slide and select where to insert it in the new file and select keep 'destination theme', it saves in that location but doesnt take on the tab function of the section I have slotted it into. So the tabs dont work for the new slides.
The only way I can think of to do this so it works is to duplicate one of the slides in the target tabbed section, and paste contents from the source slide into that slide. But this is slow going.
Can anyone think of a better/quicker way?

Glad that worked for you. Your solution is what I suggested in my second option e.g. editing the new slide master that is created when you paste the slides whilst maintaining the source formatting.

Mine was the quickest solution.
