Hi, I love using PowerPoint to deliever rich lectures in class;
however, I'd like to be able to print a version of the presentation
that I call student guided notes. This would include the presentation
slides with the ability to mark certain sections of text as "student
fill in". Then when I print the presentation as guided notes, those
sections of the text would be replaced with an underline, requiring
the students to fill the details during the lecture.

In order for me to do this now, I maintain two version of the
presentation. This is a pain to maintain.

Have a look here:

Recolor or hide "key" text in a presentation
http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00508.htm

If you give the key words a unique color (which can be so close to the normal
text color as to be indistinguishable by eye), it'll convert the text to some
other color (your background color) on demand.

While it won't let you toggle back and forth, it'd convert from normal to
"student guided notes" in seconds, you'd save the presentation under a new name
and you're done.
