Keeping the cursor through a slide show

[Paul Marcuzzo]

Hi folks, I know this has come up before but I couldn't
find it searching the archives. Could somebody point me
to the "add in" that allows you to keep your
cursor/pointer active during the presentation. My ppt
show is full of hyperlinks to run custom slide shows.
It's a real pain to have to wiggle the mouse button
everytime and find that little puppy. Any help would be
greatly appreciated. Oh yes this is PPT 2000

Thanks
Paul

Slideshow menu
Set up show
Set it to "kiosk" mode....then the pointer/cursor is always visible

Try going to Slide Show Mode, right-clicking on the screen, highlight
"Pointer", then click "Arrow" (at least this is what I have in 2002
version). Of course you can also press "A" while in slide show mode and the
arrow will show up.

Look at ShowMouse utility from http://officerone.tripod.com/ - when
ShowMouse is running, the cursor would be kept showing.
