Rotating the entire show

Hi,
I am running a show for the Relay for Life in my community that will show
the names of those who contributed to the walk. The problem is that the
"luminary" that we are going to show it on is taller than it is wide (almost
a 9:16 ratio which is opposite of wide screen t.v.'s.) and the projector in
order to fill the screen up as far tall as possible will have to be turned on
it's side. In other words, the entire power point will need to be rotated 90
degrees so that everything is the right way up. So what I was wondering is
if there is a way to have power point rotate the show when presented so I
won't have to rotate all of the names individually. I would rather do this
so then when I type in all of the names, they will be right side up. Also, I
want to do this with a portrait orientation so that it will fit the screen
better.
Thanks in advance!

hpceman,

As the projector is being rotated 90 degrees.

I believe you will have to design your slides in the normal landscape
orientation.
You will need to rotate the text through 90 degrees.


If you design your slides in portrait, when they are presented through the
projector, they will only occupy the middle third of the screen/projector.
