Slide Linker

A Free Addin for Microsoft® PowerPoint®

GMARK Slide Linker : Link slides together so that when one is copied, all linked slides are copied Slide Linker was born from a LinkedIn discussion started by Carrie Campbell (thanks Carrie)!

So, to summarise the need: "I need to be able to link slides together so that when one is copied, all slides that are linked are copied."

And that's exactly what this addin does for PowerPoint 2010 and 2007.

One important point: to use Slide Linker, all users must install the addin eg. the folks that create the presentation and the ones who copy & paste slides from it.
