Looping

I am putting together a PP presentation that will be used during a
theatrical show. I want to make it easier for the guy who is going to be
periodically whacking the spacebar. However, I think I have to make two
different presentations and have him load in the second one. This
shouldn't< be difficult, but I'm paranoid. Here's the scenario:

I need to have a looping segment that will play while the audience is being
seated...waiting for the show...that sort of thing.
The rest of it is a straight forward presentation that he will invoke as
called for in the script.
It would be nice if this could all be one presentation, but I couldn't
figure any way to make a segment loop until a spacebar tap, so I am (as
mentioned above) making them two different presentations.

Now, maybe it's dead easy, but prior to this I've never had to deal with PP
beyond a real basic level and I am slightly out of my element, although I
have made it do some nifty effects and am quite pleased with my finished
product.

thanx for any help/k

Hello,

If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that it's important that
PowerPoint provide this kind of functionality in a single presentation file
(not require using 2 presentations), 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)
