You mean like having something like a slide show within Max? Or a listing of text pages? You could use screen shots of your slides/pages with [fpic], use [jweb], make a website of the contents and just run it from the browser, lots of options.
I just tried using [textarea]: pasted in pages of text and saved a preset of each, which sort of works, but you need semicolons to preserve line breaks, so… not quite :)
If the idea is to use Max for the presentation/report, I would just make the slides in another program and save as images, stack them all on top of each other in your patch, then use a [tab] to switch between them. Or you can have your content/text right in patches/subpatches, and a main table of contents with message boxes for the sections. Click the message box, the correct subpatch opens using [pcontrol], or the correct slide/bpatcher comes to the top:
script bringtofront 1_slide
script bringtofront 2_slide

[thispatcher]
