hi all,

trying to run a 2 slide show presentation on dual screens.
my problems is
when i launch the the first presentation it works fine the slides loop perfectly
when i launch the second slide show the first presentation will halt displaying the last before the second slide show was
initiated.
anyone experienced this before?

thanks in advance

PowerPoint allows only one slide show to remain active at any time. Look at
PowerShow add-in at http://officeone.mvps.org/powershow/powershow.html - it
enables you to display multiple slide shows simultaneously.

As Chirag said:

Once more for emphasis:

"it enables you to display multiple slide shows simultaneously."

That looks suspiciously like a workaround to me.

update as soon as possible. From PowerPoint, choose "Help -> Check for

Hello,

PowerPoint does not have the built-in capability to show and control
multiple slide shows simultaneously..

If you (or anyone else reading this message) feel strongly that PowerPoint
should include some additional features around multiple monitors and
multiple slide shows (without requiring an add-in or additional software),
don't forget to send your feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS, please) to Microsoft
at:

As with all product suggestions, it's important that you not just state
your wish but also WHY it is important to you that your product suggestion
be implemented by Microsoft. Microsoft receives thousands of product
suggestions every day and we read each one but, in any given product
development cycle, there are only sufficient resources to address the ones
that are most important to our customers so take the extra time to state
your case as clearly and completely as possible.

IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of
suggestions).
