I need to allow people to add an issue number to slide that contains a
screenshoot.

Basically i need to allow the use to number different issues on a
screenshot really easily. If this can be somehow automated it would be
excellent.

Does anyone have any suggestion on how i could go about this?

Do you want it to show up in slide show mode or only in edit mode?

I'm sure it can be, but first we'd need a better idea of exactly what you need.
Assume you're doing it in PPT manually.
What steps would you follow?

The PPT will be used to review screenshots. So the person reviewing the
screenshot will be highlighting issues they see and numbering them
1,2,3 etc.... there will be muliple issues per slide... they will be
doing this in edit mode.

OK.  But again, if you were doing this manually, what would you do?
Describe the steps as though you were training a new intern who hasn't had much
PowerPoint experience.  

For example, you know what "Highlighting issues" means to you.  We don't.

How are the numbers assigned?  Do they reset per slide, per presentation, or ...?
Does the user assign them or must the system do so?
