To insert a picture file on a ppt presentation slide, it can be achieved via insert->picture->from file. There occurs this situation where a user needs to insert a high number of pictures, one to each slide in the presentation. Is there a way to achieve this in a quicker way, instead of doing the insert files repeatedly? Thanks.

You can use Tools, Macro to record a macro that inserts a new slide and then uses "Insert, Picture" to open the file location where the pictures are. You would likely have to select the picture yourself, and click the "Insert" button to make sure it got the picture you wanted.

If the files are in a particular position on the pages and for each one then some manipulation may be required. One could do a mass drag and drop copy-clip type insertion and then simply move the objects to the required locations in the project. Each file would be dragged in independant of each other and would remove the multiple step of a three function insertion being done for each picture.
