SYMPTOMS
If you copy more than one slide from the Slide Sorter and paste it into a non-PowerPoint file, such as a Word document, you see only the first slide. If you double-click the image of the first slide, PowerPoint starts and runs a slide show of the slides that you copied.



CAUSE
PowerPoint provides two kinds of OLE objects: slides and presentations. Both types of objects appear in your Word document as a single slide. You create a PowerPoint slide object by copying a single slide from the Slide Sorter and pasting it into another document. You create a PowerPoint presentation object by copying several slides from the slide sorter and pasting them into another document.



RESOLUTION
There are 2 methods for copying your PowerPoint slides to Microsoft Word.

Method 1
To have more than one slide image appear in your Word document, copy the slides one at a time from Slide Sorter view.

Method 2
Use the Send to Word feature to send your entire presentation to Microsoft Word.
 * 1) From the File menu, point to Send To, and click Microsoft Word.
 * 2) Select the desired Page Layout, and whether you want to Paste or Paste Link the slides into Microsoft Word.
 * 3) Click OK.
