How extract JPEG Images From .ppt Show to Another Folder?

[RJT]

I've built a large PowerPoint (2000) slide show with nothing but
inserted JPEGs. I've since deleted the JPEGS from their original
location/folder. However, I now need to copy them from the show back
to a folder. How can I do this? Simply following the select, copy,
paste menus isn't working.

Thanks!!

In the past I have used a program called Extractor
(http://www.slunecnice.cz/product/Extractor/) to extract those .jpeg files
(the program itself can actually extract a large number of files from within
any file). In the trial version it is limited to only 30 pictures per file.
One workaround (besides buying the program) is to copy your first 30 slides
into a new PowerPoint file, save it, and then extract the 30 pictures from
that file. Then you just need to copy the next 30 slides into a new file and
so on. After a while you can really get the hang of it (I had ca 2000
pictures done this way), and if you have not already memorized the
shortcuts, this is the time for it!

Slide sorter view (scaled down, so that you can easily see a large number of
slides)
Mark the 30 slides
Ctrl+C (copy)
Ctrl+N (new presentation)
Ctrl+V (paste)
Ctrl+S (save presentation)
Ctrl+W (close window)

Then repeat the process over...!

Well, just a thought at least!
