Is there a simple way to creat multiple distinct playlists or PowerPoint
Shows out of different PowerPoint files ? Please notify me at

You can create a playlist, but PowerPoint can't/won't open it. You can open it
in the Viewer. If you need to play multiple presentations sequentially, see the
tutorial at http://www.powerpointbackgrounds.com/powerpointlinking.htm

Thank yu so much. I will test your suggestion and it it sounds very
promising. I am curious: is their a viewer compatible with Windows XP that I
can test the two ways of accomplshing what I am attempting to do. I tried
PPview32 and it does not show the animation in a windows XP ppt file. Thanks
again.

A follow up -- I would like to also experiment with a windows XP powerpoint
viewer that recognizes .lst PowerPoint playlists. Thanks

Yes, the PowerPoint 2003 Viewer will play your PowerPoint 2002 or 2003
animations. However, you cannot directly open a LST file from within the
Viewer. You have to run it from the command line - - see

You can download the Viewer from:
