Hi, Yes this is strange - I can't get it to work with this particular presentation, though last time I tried it it would with others. I wonder - if anyone could take a look at this presentation for me and see whether you are able to move through the slides with page up/down? Just as an experiment...I've tried exiting and restarting Powerpoint to no avail...
