Selectively Hiding Charts

[Troy Flinchbagh]

I am trying to maintain a single PowerPoint presentation
that I can use for numerous presentations depending on the
audience. Is there a simple way to mark charts and turn
on and off entire subsets of a presentation. ie for a
Daily update I only want charts marked daily, weekly would
have all the weekly plus the daily, etc

Troy,
You want to play around with Custom Shows (Slide Show --> Custom Show). It
was designed for exactly this kind of thing. IF you want to get a head start
on playing, check out the Custom Show article on my site at URL:

You can give titles to your chart slides (wk1, wk2, etc.) then drag the
title boxes off the slides so they will not be visible during the
presentation. That way when you set up your custom shows you will be able
to quickly identify the correct slides that you want in each subset. Be
sure to apply layouts with title boxes, rather than inserting text boxes.
You will be able to use an outline of the titles to set up your shows and to
keep a record of what you showed when.
