In this lab session, you generate slides containing the questions that the game board, created in Lab 4A, will link to. Because the game board is large, you'll do just one slide step-by-step here, and then you can create the rest of the slides on your own.
Level of difficulty: Easy
Time to complete: 15 to 20 minutes
Open the presentation file if it is not already open. Start in your completed file from the previous project (MyLab04A.pptx), or open Lab04B.pptx from the Labs folder (from the CD accompanying the book) if you did not do the previous lab.
Save the file as MyLab04B.pptx.
Create a new blank slide using the Title and Content layout after the first one.
On the Home tab, click the text below the New Slide button.
Click Title and Content.
For the new slide's title, type the following:
Safety for 10 Points
For the new slide's body, type the following:
True or false: you should wear long sleeves when working on a PC.
Add True and False buttons below the question.
Display slide #1, and select any of the turquoise shapes.
Press Ctrl+C to copy the shape.
Display slide #2.
Press Ctrl+V to paste the shape.
Edit the text on the shape to read True.
Hold down the Ctrl key and drag the True shape to create a copy of it.
Edit the text on the new shape to read False.
Arrange the shapes side-by-side under the question text.
Create additional slides for the other questions by copying the slide you just created and modifying its text. Refer to the following table for the question text to use. (If you do not want to do all of that typing, see the solution file MyLab04B.pptx provided on the CD accompanying the book.)
