    Slide limit in a pwerpoint presentation?

    Has anyone come across a limit to the number of slides a ppt* can hold before it goes doolally?

    I'm using it as a noddy bpa package until I can get it uploaded into casewise and I think that I'll be hitting about 100+ slides before I'm finished.

    *Yes, I know that powerpoint isn't the tool for this.
    *No, there are reasons why I can't use Visio.
    *But thanks for your suggestions...

    Actually just remembered that I can hyperlink out to other presentations.

    Sorted.

    Thanks!

      We had a potplant called 'Maud'.
      Just as effective.

        You should be murdered very, very slowly for even thinking of this question.

            It is not a limit in PPT, there was a fault in the Casewise Corporate Modeler diagrammer that caused the slide show generation to stop.

            It was fixed some time ago but I can't remember exactly when.

              Ive seen - and edited ages ago in 2003- powerpoints with hundreds of slides. No issue

                God, I'd hate to sit through one of your presentations Jacko, if you're asking about slide limits.

                    I had to create processes that pretended to be in a casewise corporate-modeler type useable format (the licences still haven't come through yet... )

                    They were very impressive, however when I presented them using an electronic whiteboard...
