Need to change the template in a presentation

[M Skabialka]

I have been asked to update an older presentation to a new layout. I have a
template with the new Slide Master and page layouts. I had hoped to be able
to open both and by using 2 monitors be able to copy and paste from the old
to the new.



However there has to be an easier way. But I can't seem to be able to open
both presentations simultaneously - they both open in the same window.



How do you copy a custom template from one presentation to another in Office
2007 and Win XP?

This worked great except for the master slide but compared to the other 25
slides that was no big deal to change! And I soooo.... agree with your
comment about the ribbon. If only I could have the old menus running
parallel until I figure out the convoluted logic behind the ribbons!
Thanks,
