We showed you how to add clip media within the Clip Organizer, and then we explored how you can create and organize Collections. Any clip media which is added by you or added from the web has keywords associated with it. These keywords are helpful, especially when you are searching for results associated with a particular keyword. Clip Organizer enables you to add and edit these keywords. These concepts are explained in this tutorial.

What is the Clip Organizer?

If you are new to Clip Organizer, it's a basic digital asset management program that lets you catalog clip media to be used within PowerPoint and other Microsoft Office programs. Do note that while you can catalog and organize media using the Clip Organizer, you will still have to insert these clip media via the Clip Art task pane in Microsoft Office applications.

The version we are exploring was included as part of Microsoft Office 2000, but the techniques we explore will work for previous versions too. However, Clip Organizer no longer works within newer versions of Microsoft Office released thereafter, such as Office 2013 or subsequent versions.

Follow these steps to work with keywords in Clip Organizer in PowerPoint 2010 for Windows:

  1. Launch Microsoft Clip Organizer and access any collection which has some clips added. In Figure 1, below you can see that we are exploring an existing Collection.
  2. Collection selected within the Microsoft Clip Organizer
