playing slideshow while operating another program too

[amyver]

could anyone tell me how to keep a slide show running on a dual monitor
setup. and then at the same time run a seperate program tha will present
itself over the slide how. then not have the slide show stop in the middle of
the show when the task bar is clicked to another program.

I can't help you Amy, though I think that I have a related question.
I have got a slideshow that has some hyperlinks in. I'm using the Presenter
View (in Powerpoint 2003), and though they hyperlinks work fine when I don't
use the Presenter view, in the Presenter view, clicking on the link just
advances to the next slide, rather than opening a browser & then the link.

I've googled & searched in several places, but as I can't seem to find
anyone else asking about this, I'm assuming that I've set something up
incorrectly.

Hey, Amy,
I have found the answer to my question in an <a
href="http://www.microsoft.com/office/com...soft.com/office/community/en-us/settings.xml2>
older discussion </a> Do the other ideas in there help you - as I see that
Powershow extra costs $100.
