MS-PowerPoint is the complete presentation graphic program, using which one can create extremely satisfying presentations to get the desired results. It allows the creation of presentation which can be a collection of slides, speaker notes, handouts or media clips, providing everything one needs to communicate clearly to others.
Presentation
Presentation can be termed as a group of activities consisting of slides, handouts, speaker notes, media clips, organization charts and graphs. These activities can be grouped and used for on-screen presentation.
To start MS-PowerPoint follows the steps below

The MS-PowerPoint window opens with a dialog box using which either a new presentation can be created or an existing one is opened. This dialog box appears only once at the start of the program and will be available only when MS-PowerPoint is started next.
Various options listed in the dialog are,
- From AutoContent Wizard: The quickest way to create a presentation through the step-by-step procedure of Wizard
