Hi,

I am a complete novice to Powerpoint, so forgive me if this is a silly
question.  I have a presentation that I will give next week.  The
presentation will be made by connecting my laptop's second VGA controller to
an LCD projector.  I have made notes for each slide in the slide show.  What
I wanted to do was have the slide show display on the projector screen and
the notes on the laptop screen.  So everyone sees my falshy slides while I
read off the laptop screen (rather than off cue cards).  Is there anyway to
do this, or anything similar.  I am sure you can see how this would be
helpful and so I thought some bright spark might have worked out how to make
it possible.  I have already tried two instances of the presentation on an
extended desktop and it is too messy.

TIA,

Jarryd

Assuming the laptop supports multiple monitors

Slide Show > set up show > show slide show on secondary monitor
Tick presenter view

Did that answer the question / help?
