I usually point people to the actden site. The UCLA one is good also

http://www.actden.com/pp/

http://www.oid.ucla.edu/fipse/tutorials/basicppt.html

and there is one at Microsoft also.

Don't forget to check the 'getting Started' booklet with the software.
That will get you going a ways. And the fancy stuff doesn't always make
it better anyway.

PeachPit Press has many good books. Usually inexpensive, but well laid
out and easy to access. If there is a good used book store around, and
your version isn't the 'latest and greatest', you can get some pretty
good buys

Subject: TECH-> help with a Powerpoint problem

Hi folks - Does anybody know if there is a quick (and online) way to
learn
to put together a Powerpoint presentation? My superintendent has asked
if
I could help him with one for a renovation project meeting and I would
like to say yes. However, I have "played" with it and inserted pictures
but that's about all. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I meed a
short and sweet "powerpoint for dummies" kind of thing.
