You can make your notes in Word and then you still have the PowerPoint 
presentation so you can open that and read through it also.  This way you have 
the best of both worlds, your notes and the complete lecture to refer back to.

If your tutor is sending you a ppt because of your viskual impairment and maybe 
not sending to other students, you could also ask the person to leave out any 
graphics which might help you.  I do a lot of reading of ppt slides as I proof 
them for my friend who is a law lecturer.  I used ppt very little myself but 
now have got much more used to it.

  I think the final option is what I'm looking for,  I'll give it a go.  I'm 
not familiar with pp (as you may have gathered) but its great to have a slide 
up on the screen that I can actually see.  Now I realise how much I was missing 
in class.
  Sending it to word has reduced it substantially but to be able to take the 
notes from the frames is worth it.

  Thanks

  Edel..

    I am not sure what you mean Edel but you can certainly cut and paste in 
Powerpoint itself, in Microsoft Word and even if you send the PowerPoint to 
Word you can do what you want with it.  As I said there are many options and 
you select one.  You can make notes beside the slide or below the slide or 
something which might suit you better is the final option where you save the 
PowerPoint simply as text and then you just treat it like any other text file, 
cut and paste, edit away, between paragraphs, lines etc.

          Yes Edel there certainly is.  PowerPoint is designed for this very 
purpose.  Open your PowerPoint presentation then go to the File menu and select 
Send to Microsoft Office Word.  You can do this by Alt + F for file and then up 
arrow twice, the first you will be on is Properties and then Send To.  Then 
when you are on Send To right arrow across and then use the down arrow until 
you come to Microsoft Office Word.  Then Enter on that.  Once you do this you 
will be in another screen with various options.  These options are selected by 
using the space bar to select the particular radio button you want so you need 
to decide which suits you.  If my instructions are too vague I will write out 
more thoroughly or talk you through it on the phone if you are by your computer.

            Hi Paul and all

            Quick question

            I am receiving my lecturer notes by email in the form of pp 
presentations as I am unable to see them in class.

            My question is,

            is there a way to cascade powerpoint with a word document so that I 
can take notes from the slides 

            Edel..
