Tagging graphical slides in Microsoft Powerpoint 2003

You can put tags on images in PowerPoint.

You tab on the screen in object mode till JAWS says image

Then let me remember.  I think you find a tab that maybe says Web or
something like that.  This will take you to an edit field for alt text.

When JAWS reads the screen in slide show mode, it will read the alt text tag.

So far as I know, however, for some stupid reason the tag is actually lost
when you save PowerPoint for the Web but it works just fine in stand alone
slide
show mode.
