G Glenna Oct 22, 2003 #3 Several ways: Within PowerPoint, Click on Slide Show, View Show -or- hit F5 or click on the click on the lower left Slide Show button (if present). If you want a presentation just to run automatically everytime its opened, rename it to a PPS file instead of a PPT file. HTH, Glenna
