"I find your book the best of the three I have bought to learn PowerPoint."
-Robert Maddin
This book was a HUGE help for me while learning PowerPoint 2007. It was remarkably clearly written and easy to follow. While I'm not a big fan of all the changes to the PowerPoint (and the Office suite generally), it's great to have a well-written guidebook for coping with the increased complexity!

PowerPoint Tips & Tutorials
Expand one slide into two
If you can't make text fit properly on one slide without squeezing it in too tightly, split the text into two slides. If the text is in a text placeholder, this is easily done using the Outline toolbar. To display the Outline toolbar, right-click any toolbar and choose Outline.
- Place the cursor in the Outline tab of the Outline pane (not on the slide) at the end of the last line of text that you want on the first slide.
- Press Enter.
- On the Outline toolbar, click Promote until a New Slide icon appears in the Outline pane.
- Type a title for the new slide.
- Adjust the rest of the text as needed by clicking Demote or Promote on the Outline toolbar.
