Create a "Project" and add the shows to it. You'll, have two tabs, one for each show. Open the tab with the show you want to tack onto the end of the other one, select all the slides, copy to the Clipboard, then open the other tab, click in the blank area after the very last slide, and paste what's sitting on the Clipboard. From there, you'll probably have to adjust things such as an opening slide sitting right next to a closing slide, but you'll have the slides from both shows sitting inside just one of them. You can, at that point, close the show containing the slides you copied.

Before you do any of this, save each of the shows to a new name to preserve the originals just in case of natural disaster. :D

Create a "Project" with first Show,
then ADD ("+" sign on the left of this Show name) to it.
Check the "connection" between the shows (ending slide of first show & beginning of second) - by my experience: black screen work best.

Astra, you were so right to mention how to create a project. I went on and on without once considering the possibility that Roy Sigs has never created a project.

By "black screen," do you mean adding a blank slide at the end of the first show?

Barabara,

you were right - I had in mind "Blank" slide (with Black background).

Couple more suggestions:
- also: last Transition in First show: should be "Cut" with Time of "0", (... & adding after Barbara's comment: for LAST SLIDE which is "blank-black" ) -
- & first slide in Second Show - another "Blank" slide - (I'm using Time of "0.3" second) - followed by short transition ,
- and for MUSIC: offset it by same amount of "0.3" - (sometimes - for some reason - music is chopped at beginning of second show.)

I'm sure you were referring to the tacked-on blank slide, but the OP may not realize this. Nobody wants the the final slide of the actual show blinking out of existence. :shock:

Barbara,
I just edited my previous post (after your comment) - is it more understandable now ?

We work well together, Astra. I think of most of something and you fill in the rest. Then you think of most of something and I fill in the rest. What teamwork! :lol:

Betty,
nice example you've found - well explained there.

- only - if I can have a comment: your "link" to YouTube - doesn't work .... one has to copy & paste ....

Thanks Astra,

I tried using the 'youtube' button but I guess it didn't work.
So I used the standard URL button and I think I have it now.
Thank you for pointing that out and sorry it took me so long to return to fix it.

Betty, the YouTube buttons are for inserting the actual video in your post. The URL button is for inserting just the link, though in most cases, simply adding the URL without wrapping it in the tags works just fine.
