There appear to be ways to print a collection of slide notes in the PC
version of PPT, but I can't find the corresponding options for version
X for the Mac.

I had hoped to be able to show a "presenter's version" on my laptop
while showing the slide show itself through a projector, but from what
I'm reading here, that's not an option. So my next hope was simply to
print, in a list format, just my notes from each slide, which I could
refer to as I ran the show.

Can this be done? Otherwise the only solution appears to be cut and
paste from each slide (in normal view) into a word document... arrgh.

TIA,
Richard Pini

Worked like a charm, and thanks! (Once I discovered a syntax error
caused by a line break that was introduced in the cut-and-paste process
from text into the macro maker!)
