PPT v X alternatives to .lst files

[Jack]

I'm looking for an alternative to the late (and at least in my case)
lamented .lst files that used to be part of using Powerpoint.

Trying to launch one yields a dialog that states they are no longer
supported (true) and to search the PPT help for the alternatives
(false). This search yields nothing helpful.

Thanks,

Jack

Jack,

Are you trying to link together a series of presentations?

If that's the case see

Yes.

The individual presentations are chapters that I combine in different
ways for classes I teach.

I would like a way to have them open and print in different sequences
depending on my needs.

TAJ, thanks for the suggestion. This looks very promising! Right now
though I am receiving an error dialog box when I click "OK" to include
the first file. This happens after I have selected the file and
clicked the "Display as icon" check box. It states:

The server application, source file, or item cannot be found. Check
that the path and file name are correct, or try reinstalling the
server application.

I tried renaming the files so that they have no white space. The names
of the files and the containing folder are all 8.3 compliant. Any
ideas?
