Looping A Presentation in the Background

[Guest]

Is it possible to loop a presentation on a second monitor no matter what....
even if powerpoint isn't active.

I need to have excel open on the first screen but when i make excel active
the powerpoint presentation on the second screen pauses !!!!

Can this be done so that the powerpoint presentation loops all the time
whether active or non-active?

Put the presentation in a window and then put it in Kiosk mode. I have
written about doing this with Vista on my blog. A couple of people have
claimed it works in XP as well, though it never has for me.

Yes, look up PowerShow on OfficeOne's web site. It will keep the
presentation running while you do other work.
