Have set up several tiles for a powerpoint presentation and my laptop screens
all seven tiles but will not allow a continuous showing of the programme once
the seventh tile has been shown

Which version of PowerPoint are you using? Have you set the presentation
to loop continuously (in Slide Show > Set Up Show)? Do you want it to
advance automatically? If so, have you set up the last slide (as well as
the others) to advance automatically?

Does slide 7 have a timed auto transition?
Did you choose "Loop till esc" in Slid Show > Set Up Show?
 
Hi Roger,

You don't state your version of PowerPoint, but in v.2002 this works:

TO PLAY SOUND THROUGHOUT: Click thumbnail #1 | Click SLIDESHOW | CUSTOM
ANIMATION | if necessary click on name of sound file. Click the down-arrow
to the right of the name | EFFECT OPTIONS | PLAY SOUND | STOP PLAYING |
select AFTER and type 999 for the number of slides | TIMING | REPEAT | type
1000 | OK.

TO LOOP THE SOUND: On slide #1, right-click the sound icon | In the
drop-down menu click EDIT SOUND OBJECT (SPEAKER ICON) | Check "Loop until
stopped" | OK.

TO LOOP THE SLIDES: Click SLIDESHOW | SET UP SHOW | SHOW OPTIONS | Check
"Loop continuously until 'Esc' " | OK.

Good Luck.
Andy I.
