In this chapter
In Chapter 1, "What's the Point?," you learned just what PowerPoint can do for you and some of the things you'll need to watch out for. Enough introduction, you say! Hopefully you took at least a little time with Chapter 1, but now you're ready to jump right in to using PowerPoint. Typically, beginning books tell you all about the screen, the menus, how to get help, and so on you know, more stuff to make you wait even longer to use PowerPoint. All that is important, but you're going to try something a little different in this book. You're going to jump in, poke around, and create a simple slide show. By doing so, you'll see how really easy it can be to use PowerPoint. Then you'll go back and learn everything you need to understand what you're dealing with. |
