We always play our presentations through a Windows laptop to a projector, no
problem. Someone has come along wanting to play the presentation on the
projector but see the notes on the laptop screen, all from one laptop.
Apparently you can do this on a mac!

Any ideas how you go about this in a Windows environment?

The first question: Does your laptop support two screens of different (not
mirrored) content? That's a function of your OS and monitor drivers, not
PowerPoint. That's your starting point.

Thanks Tim, I expect the answer is "no" but at least that is a good place to
start.

Thanks again.
