Cm,
I would suggest using reuse slides. On the home tab of the ribbon in the
Slides group, click on listarrow next to New slide, choose reuse slides. In
the reuse slides taskpane, click on browse button, choose from file, open
the file, now click on the slides you want to insert. Once finished save the
file as a new PPT-file.
