Lost Presenter View - Help Please

I'm using 2 and monitors with duel enabled. presenter view
check using ppxp. I have win xp. 3 Days ago, I did a
presentation and everything went fine. I created a new
presentation and now the slide show runs fine but
presenter view does not show, the only thing I can think
of that I did differently was edit a slide while in
presenter view and it changed the slide on screen. Any
ideas on getting presenter view back??

Do you mean that Show Presenter View is checked in Set Up Show, but it isn't
working? Have you tried Detect and Repair?

yes, and the show does work on the second monitor.I have
tried detect and repair, un-installed and re-installed to
no avail, Bizzare

Then I'm not sure what you mean when you say that you edited a slide while
in presenter view. Presenter view doesn't offer any editing capability.

Thanks for your patients, if you open in presenter view,
it leave powpoint open (you have 2 windows open on the
taskbar) if you go to the 1st powerpoint, you can edit the
existing slide and it will change right then. I use it to
highlight certain words during a presentation given by
another person, by changing font colors, adding pictures

In that case you have the Slide Show open, the Normal View open, and the
Presenter View open. Use Alt + Tab to return to Presenter View.

tried it but the tab no longer says presenter view it just
says slideshow but I have verified that show presenter
view is checked and 2 monitor support is exended the
desktop. Thank you very much for your help though.

When you press Alt + Tab, you should see three icons. One looks like a
white screen with a blue board. Tab over to it. Doesn't it say Microsoft
PowerPoint Presenter View?
