Do you have PowerPoint on your computer too? If so, open the presentation in PowerPoint and go to the Slide Show menu and choose Slide Transitions...you will see where they are set to transition from slide to slide automatically after so many seconds. Either change the amount of time to a longer time or check "on mouse click" instead of "automatically", then you can control the transition by clicking your mouse while the presentation runs. But you will need to have PowerPoint installed to do this. Word won't do it.

It is one of the best (worst) I've seen. The problem is that the scene changes are set up automatically and they change to fast. The impact would be much greater if I could manually change them, or at least if more time was given to view them. Can I change this? It has been years since I did anything in MS/PP. I do have Word 97 Pro. on this puter. ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?Subject=unsubscribe Or, visit the group's homepage and use the dropdown menu.
