Not so much that, but if you need a reference, it is usually easier just to use the slide number, rather than have multiple numbering systems. And of course the whole idea of floating figures, that appear on a page "not too far" from their insertion point, doesn't carry over to slides very well. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.
