Excel prob

[Michael]

My issue is that I have information in excel that I want to paste into a
powerpoint slideshow. I constantly update the information in excel and I
need it to constantly update while the slideshow is running also. I have
done a paste special of the excel info into powerpoint and it does
automatically update if both are opened on one computer but when I open the
slideshow on another network computer (computer B) that is hooked to the TV
we are showing the slideshow on, the changes I make on my own computer
(computer A) are not updating to computer B. They are both running from the
same network and the excel file and powerpoint file are located in the same
place. Any suggestions on how I get the slideshow to automatically update
when I make changes from computer A? I hope this makes sense. I have
searched and found add-ins but they do not seem to be doing the job.

Hi Michael

There may be another solution, but powershow allows you to synchronise a
show on 2 computers. I believe there is a fully functioning demo so you can
see if it meets your needs:
