Is there a way to copy a slide from one presentation to another and keep the
original slide design? I am using PPT 2003

One easy way to do this is to go to the target presentation and go to the
Insert menu and choose Slides From Files. Pick the slide(s) you want and be
sure to check "Keep source formatting."

You can right click on the slide thumbnail, then select Copy.
Go to the new presentation, and click Edit > Paste.
A paste option icon will then appear.
Click on it, select Keep Source Formatting.

Alternately, from the new presentation, click Insert > Slides from files.
Browse for the ppt file.
Select the slides you want to insert.
Put a checkmark on "Keep Source Formatting".
Then click Insert.

Look at the lower right corner of the slide. The paste icon should show up
there.
