When you open PowerPoint 2000, the PowerPoint dialog box presents three ways to create a presentation:
· AutoContent Wizard : Creates a slide set within the theme you select.
· Design Template : Creates slides from pre-designed slide sets for standard presentations.
· Blank Presentation : Creates slides that you design from scratch.
You can also open an existing presentation. If the PowerPoint dialog box has been disabled, you can start a new presentation in any of the ways listed above from the File menu. You can create a new presentation at any time even if you have others open. Using a wizard or template when you create a new presentation can save you time.
