Re Requesting this as suggested by Dave (thank you).

Is it possible to embed a ~real-time~ clock into the background
of a PP presentation and if so would it be possible to use either
the computer's clock or link to an atomic on the net?

Thanks for any assistance.

Regards,
Mike.
 
Perhaps you could tell us what part of the answer David gave you wasn't
'quite what you were after'?

Wrong color, wrong time zone, wrong code, wrong corner?

ISTR, one of the options on the clock add-in is to constantly update the
date/time and keep it current with the computer clock. You may want to look
at it again.

If you sync your computer to an atomic clock, via one of the freeware clock
updating programs on the net, it'll be close. How exact do you need it
during a PowerPoint presentation?

I'm after a clock that FILLS the ~background~ so the presentation
appears in front of a working analogue clock.

That would be good, yes.

I'm sure that would be fine, so I just need the actual clock.

Thanks,
Mike.
