    Make sure the Drawing toolbar is activated in your Word (View menu > Toolbars > Drawing) and select the big white arrow tool (i think it is an Object Selector Tool) then click the object. click again on that tool to disable Object Selection

    Introduction into Microsoft PowerPoint

    Microsoft PowerPoint is a powerful tool to create professional looking presentations and slide shows. PowerPoint allows you to construct presentations from scratch or by using the easy to use wizard.

    This tutorial will help you get started with Microsoft PowerPoint and may solve some of your problems, but it is a very good idea to use the Help Files that come with Microsoft PowerPoint, or go to Microsoft's web site located at http://microsoft.com/office/powerpoint/default.htm for further assistance.

    Starting Microsoft PowerPoint

    Two Ways

    Double click on the Microsoft PowerPoint icon on the desktop.

    Click on Start --> Programs --> Microsoft PowerPoint

    Creating & Opening a Presentation

    After you open up Microsoft PowerPoint, a screen pops up asking if you would like to create a New Presentation or Open An Existing Presentation.

    AutoContent Wizard

    Creates a new presentation by prompting you for information about content, purpose, style, handouts, and output. The new presentation contains sample text that you can replace with your own information. Simply follow the directions and prompts that are given by Microsoft PowerPoint.

    Design Template

    Creates a new presentation based on one of the PowerPoint design templates supplied by Microsoft. Use what is already supplied by Microsoft PowerPoint and change the information to your own.

    Blank Presentation

    Creates a new, blank presentation using the default settings for text and colors. Go to next step: Creating A Blank Presentation

    Opening An Existing Presentation

    Select Open An Existing Presentation from the picture above

    Click on your presentation in the white box below step 1

    If you do not see your presentation in the white box, select More Files and hit OK.

    Locate you existing Presentation and hit the Open button

    Create a Blank Presentation

    After you select Blank Presentation a window pops up asking you to select the layout of the first slide.

    Pre-Designed Slide Layouts (Left to Right)

    Title Slide

    Bulleted List

    Two Column Text

    Table

    Text & Chart

    Chart & Text

    Organizational Chart

    Chart

    Text & Clip Art

    Clip Art & Text

    Title Only

    Blank Slide

    NOTE:If you already know what you want in your next slide, it is a very good idea to choose one of the pre-designed layouts from above. However if you do not, then you can still insert what you want in throughout your Presentation anytime you desire. Just choose Blank Slide and insert items as you see fit.
