Powerpoint 2004 dual monitor turn off presenter view on main monitor

[hppygo1]

I have two iMacs running OS x and Powerpoint 2004. I need to play a
powerpoint presentation on the second monitor plugged into the mini
DVI jack and a DVI to VGA cable, and be able to use the main monitor
for daily work.

Any suggestions on how to use dual monitors and display the powerpoint
presentation on the second external monitor only while using the built
in display for daily work.

Thanks, Ken

Not a MS issue Have a look at the Apple page on the subject of "extended
desktop":

You should be able to do what you want, but keep in mind that the RAM
requirements and processor demand to run the presentation while you do your
"daily work" may very well cause one to interfere with the performance of
the other- quite likely *both* will suffer. You're actually asking for
*multi-processing* capability which a bit much

Thanks, problem is using dual monitors not mirrored, Powerpoint makes
one monitor the presentation for the audience, and the other monitor
ques slides for the presenter.

Decided better solution is to convert PPT to video and play video.
