In developing PPT presentations, I would like to be able to use small caps in
headings. Is there a way to do this?

Our free PPTools StarterSet does this. http://www.pptools.com/starterset/

Strictly speaking, it converts all but the first letter of each word in selected
text to caps and reduces the size of the caps by an amount you can specify in an
INI file if you don't like the default value. Not true small caps, but about as
close as you'll get to 'em in PPT.

PPT 2007 will do small caps without an add-in.

It's all Brian's fault.

Yeah, but it's a whale of a lot more expensive. ;-)
Even at a buck-two-fifty for the beta.
