MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / April 2004sorry, misplaced my post & can not find w/ Search
Hi Red faced apology here - I posted (at least I thought I did) sometime in the month of April under name of MaryS. I’ve come back to check the answers and can’t seem to find my post. Drats! I’m not too familiar with this site yet so at first I thought maybe you delete old posts (?). But I did a searched on MaryS and found an even older post I had made on the Publisher list – so I guess you don’t delete them. And, searching on MaryS seemed to work to find that old post. Maybe I’m just overlooking the post – can you help so I don’t have to bug you by repeating the question? I don’t recall the exact title (OK, I’m learning some important lessons here) but it was on the topic of cleaning up old, unused media from a PowerPoint folder that contains many media files that are actually used. Not sure which media files are used and which aren’t - without making an extensive list by actually going slide by slide through the presentation. Does the PowerPoint presentation have somewhere in it a reference list of the media files actually in the presentation Thanks so much MaryS > I donât recall the exact title (OK, Iâm learning some important lessons here) but it was on the topic of cleaning up old, unused media from a PowerPoint folder that contains many media files that are actually used.

Does the PowerPoint presentation have somewhere in it a reference list of the media files actually in the presentation? If you use a Windows version of PowerPoint, our free FixLinks demo will give you a quick report listing all the linked media/image and other files in the presentation. You can download it at http://get.pptools.com No obligation whatever. If the report's useful, use it in good health. Yours and PowerPoint's. ;-)  Signature-- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com Signature[CRITICAL UPDATE - Anyone using Office 2003 should install the critical update as soon as possible. From PowerPoint, choose "Help -> Check for Updates".] [TOP ISSUE - Are you having difficulty opening presentations in PPT 2003 that you just created in PPT 2003? - http://support.microsoft.com/?id=329820] Hello, PowerPoint doesn't provide the functionality that you are looking for without resorting to VBA or add-ins. If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that it's important that PowerPoint provide this kind of functionality (without having to resort to VBA or add-ins), don't forget to send your feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS, please) to Microsoft at: http://register.microsoft.com/mswish/suggestion.asp It's VERY important that, for EACH wish, you describe in detail, WHY it is important TO YOU that your product suggestion be implemented. A good wish submssion includes WHAT scenario, work-flow, or end-result is blocked by not having a specific feature, HOW MUCH time and effort ($$$) is spent working around a specific limitation of the current product, etc. Remember that Microsoft receives THOUSANDS of product suggestions every day and we read each one but, in any given product development cycle, there are ONLY sufficient resources to address the ones that are MOST IMPORTANT to our customers so take the extra time to state your case as CLEARLY and COMPLETELY as possible so that we can FEEL YOUR PAIN. IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of suggestions).
