I want to embed a powerpoint slide in a word document.

I don't want to export it as JPG and insert the picture into my word document. I want it to be "dynamically linked", i.e. whenever I edit/change/update my slide the word document gets changed too.

Is that possible? How?

Go to the Insert ribbon then select the Object drop down (towards the right hand end).

On the dialog that comes up, select the Create from File tab, enter the name your Power Point and check the Link to file option.

NOTE This only links to the entire presentation rather than any one specific slide.

	thanks. I just want to embed one slide as if I had exported it as JPG and inserted it into word. – flybywire Nov 21 at 19:22

From the slide sorter view in PowerPoint, select the slide you want and copy it to the clipboard. Then go to Word and paste it in the desired location.

Use Paste Special and paste as "Microsoft PowerPoint Slide Object". – harrymc Nov 21 at 19:52

This will paste the object rather than a link. The OP wants the Word doc to get updated when the Power Point updates. – ChrisF Nov 21 at 20:40
