I have Office 2003 pre-installed on my PC.

I have been told that there is a Powerpoint improvement
or upgrade that allows you to project to two screens
simultaneously - eg picture for audience on large screen
and associated notes only on laptop.

I cannot find reference to this on the Microsoft site.

Can anyone please tell me if this is true and if so is it
a download or does one have to purchase as an upgrade?

Any assistance appreciated

You don't need to download anything more to use two monitors. However,
PP does rely on the correct operating system being present. Search PP
help for 'dual monitor' (w/o the quotes). You will get multiple topics
including:
Turn on dual monitor support
About running a presentation on two monitors
Set up a presentation to run on a second monitor
Set up a laptop computer to run a slide show on a projector
and
Troubleshoot running a presentation on more than one monitor

You don't need to download anything to use this handy feature but your
computer's video system needs to be able to support it. Here are two links
that give lots more info:
