Different templates in one presentation
catpat
presentation with the first slides using a template with the group
logotype, followed by pages using a template with the subsidiary's
logotype. So far I haven't solved this!

PowerPoint has several features which can solve this dilemma for you.
Start with a new, blank presentation.
View > Master > Slide Master
Whatever you do on the slide master becomes the basis for any new slide in
the presentation.
Click the CLOSE button on the little toolbar.
Now you are looking at the Title slide. This slide can be formatted any way
you like and is independent of any slides that are added. Added slides will
be like the slide master.
You might want to format the HandOut master and Notes Master while you are
in the formatting mood.
Once you have finished your formatting use File > Save As. Change the
Format to Design Template which changes the extension to .pot.
You can put the .pot into the Design folder within the Microsoft Office 2004
Templates if you want the design to turn up in the Project Gallery.
If you want the template to be the default for whenever you open PowerPoint
the after you do the formatting do this:
Use File > Save As
Change the Format to Design Template
Navigate to ...Microsoft Office 2004:Templates:Presentations:Designs
Click on Blank Presentation (that will correctly name the file - don't
change it at all)
Click Save
Click Replace
The file called "Blank Presentation" (it has NO file extension) is the one
that PowerPoint uses when it starts up and whenever you click the New
Presentation button.

Shamelessly lifted and deposited here:
Create a default "blank" presentation with your own defaults

I added a bit about how to add a Title Master as well.

It's not quite clear in the FAQ that before you can Insert a new Title
Master you must be viewing Slide Master.
MVP Mickey Stevens should be given credit, too. I expanded upon his ideas
from a newsgroup posting in which he discussed Blank Presentation.

*creating* multiple Slide/Title Masters in the same file or Design Template,
but that doesn't mean you can't *have* multiple masters in the same file.
If I understand your predicament correctly you might try this approach:
Create one file with the masters designed for the Group's requirements.
Create a second file with the masters designed for the subsidiary's
requirements. At some point - while in the Group's file use the Insert>
Slides from File command to insert copies of the slides from the subsidiary
file. Just make sure that PPT prefs (Advanced tab) has the box checked to
"Keep Design when copying...".
This enables you to not have to create separate Design Templates unless you
particularly want to have them available for future use.
