Hello All, as we get complaints that in a presentation that viewers should
'surf' through after a few seconds the cursor keeps disappearing, my
question is; is it possible to have the pointer in it's options be 'visible'
with a presentation sent to anyone?

(now viewers must right click and set pointer options to 'visible' manually)

Thanx
Guurt

I dont think so, you can only set this from a slide show. If vba is OK you
can have a "Continue to slide show" (or whatever) button on slide 1 that
triggers the visible action in vba and moves into the presentation

Another option I'd forgotten about is to use "kiosk mode" from slide show >
setup show. This will travel with the show but has a disadvantage that mouse
click animations & transitions no longer work which may well rule it out
