If you want to use slides from another presentation, the Reuse Slides features saves considerable time, as you do not have to copy and paste slides from another presentation.
Use the Reuse Slides feature to add all slides from Time.pptx into the open presentation. Preserve the order of the slides. Ensure the Use source formatting or Keep source formatting check box is not selected so that the inserted slides take on the design and formatting of the open presentation.
