Powerpoint Viewer 2007

[FranH]

How can I get rid of the black, Esc to Exit screen in Viewer 2007. I need to
run this from a kiosk, and don't want people to have to hit Esc. It works
fine within PPT, as I have clicked to turn the black screen off. I would
think Viewer would use the settings within the slideshow.

Turning off the black screen only works on your PC, it won't follow the
presentation even in the full program.

In Kiosk mode you shouldn't ever see the black screen AFAIK so it may work
fine anyway.

Steve, unfortunately, I want to return to an HTML page, which has icons for
additional slideshows. I don't want people to have to do anything but touch
the slideshow they want see (yes I have a touchscreen), have the slideshow
run, then return them to the page that has the other shows.

Do you have any other thoughts/tricks that might accomplish what I'm trying
to do? I really don't want to bring this into Flash, as I haven't mastered
it, yet.

Thanks

Steve, an Endo fo Show slide with a button would still require user
interaction, which I want to avoid. I'm concerned that people will leave it
with the slide still showing. I would love to be able to force it back to the
html page. I know....I'm asking way to much of MS.

Steve,

I appreciate your help. How would I do the full page mouseover that you
suggested?

Steve,

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, once the MouseOver occurs, it goes to
the black "Click to Exit" screen. I think I'll just go with Flash.Too bad the
Viewer doesn't use the slideshow settings. It's such a simple thing.
