Coding in PowerPoint - how to get syntax highlighted code into PowerPoint slides + a hint at future bits

I hate seeing code/xml/ any type of markup without highlighting - its nasty and if I wanted to notepad I would.

Unfortunately, copying and pasting straight from Visual Studio into PowerPoint doesn't presence all the formatting.

Well here is the procedure to get it to work (at least for *.aspx files):

• Select + CTRL+C the code in Visual Studio / Visual Web Developer
• open Microsoft Word
• Paste the code into word
• Select the contents of the Word doc and copy to clipboard
• paste onto the PowerPoint canvas (not in an existing text box)

You end up with great slides like this (which happen to be disclosing stuff too):
