I am going to give a PowerPoint presentation that will show concerning the
maintenance of a large Community Web site on a large VGA projector screen. I
would like to be able to have the web site open and visible so that the
points presented can be put into actual pracitce at the same time.

Something like tiling?

During a slide show, you can switch to the open web site using Alt+Tab. If
you still need tiling, look at Ticker Show at

The alt+Tab seemed to be the resolution, however, the only thing that I
could get was either the slide show or the PowerPoint application window
would come to the forefront. Never the browser window that was also open.

Thanks for the suggestion, but alt+Tab takes me to the PowerPoint window
where changes can be made to the presentation. I need to be able toggle
between the show and Internet Explorer 6.

Maybe alt + T would work better for you

Did that answer the question / help?

After days of furious fiddling, I have finally found what I wanted to do,
e.g., present the slide show at less than full screen.
1. Choose Set Up Show from the Slide Show drop down menu.
2. In Show type, click on Browsed by and individual (window)
3. Under Performance, select Slide show resolution, at say 800x600
4. Click OK
5. Choose View the Show from the Slide Show drop down menu.
Note, the scrolling will work differently, right arrow on the keyboard will
display the next slide, the left arrow will show the previous.

Thanks for letting us know how you resolved this, Chuck.
