Hi there

Wondering if anybody can help. I manage the video Ministry at my church
and we have powerpoint for the congreation and we would like to place
another computer with the same slides in the video room for mixing onto the
video. The only difference is that the background is different on each
computer. What l would like to do, when the master powerpoint computer
switchs to the next slide, instead of one of my guys switching ours, the
master computer computer will switch ours, either by serial or over the
network. IS this possible.

Thanks
 
Anything is possible, Steve.

Low tech solutions have included a mouse that advances both computers
together. Higher tech solutions can include PowerShow add-in
(http://officeone.mvps.org/powershow/powershow_link.html ) that will run
both shows from a single computer. Or you can custom design a pair of
add-ins to look for a trigger over a network.

Are you handy with a soldering iron? Do you have a budget? Do you know
VBA?
