MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / June 2007Can't find "Preview Window" in PowerPoint 2002
Hi, For a slideshow I am trying to "check the box that says Show and Return", which is, apparently, in the Slide Preview window, but I can't find the Slide Preview window....................... Help! Andy I. The Show and return option is located in the Link To Custom Show dialog. 1) set up a custom show 2) select a shape => Right click => Action settings 3) (tab) Mouse click => Hyperlink to ... => Custom Show 4) Select the custom show 5) Check the "Show and return" option  SignatureBill Dilworth A proud member of the Microsoft PPT MVP Team Users helping fellow users. http://billdilworth.mvps.org -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ vestprog2@ Please read the PowerPoint FAQ pages. yahoo.

I already have #1 to #3, and that works OK In ACTION SETTINGS window, where we Hyperlink to Custom Show, selecting CUSTOM SHOW produces a drop-down menu but it does not include a SHOW AND TELL option. I'm using PowerPoint 2002. Andy I. : The Show and return option is located in the Link To Custom Show dialog. : [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] : > Help! : > Andy I. Andy, When you select the custom show, the Show and return check box should become available.

When I "Choose Custom Show" as described in my reply to Bill (below), there is no SHOW AND TELL option. When I click SLIDE SHOWS | CUSTOM SHOWS there is no SHOW AND TELL option. Is there another way to CHOOSE CUSTOM SHOW?

You started out asking about Show and Return. Now you are asking about Show and Tell? I don't know what the Show and Tell feature is. I do know that when I select "Custom Show" from the Hyperlink to.... drop down on the Action Settings dialog, a new dialog comes up that lists the custom shows. At the bottom left of that dialog is a check box for Show and return. You can also use Right Click --> Hyperlink to insert the link to the custom show. When you bring up the linking dialog this way, select "Place in this document" in the leftmost column. Scroll to the bottom of the list and you will see the list of custom shows. When you select one, the Show and return box (found under the slide preview on the right side) will become checkable. Does that help any?

I'm the one I'm afraid. Show and TELL!! What was I thinking?! ( My kindergarten days ?) For Show and Tell please substitute Show and Return...... Anyway I found it. Everything is now working as it should, except perhaps my brain. Many thanks for your detailed instructions. Andy I. : Andy, : I am confused. You started out asking about Show and Return.

This works pretty much the same in 2000 and 2003; I don't have 2002 handy but I can't imagine it's any different. In the Action Settings dialog box, clicking next to "Hyperlink to:" produces a dropdown. From it, choose Custom Show. That brings up a "Link to Custom Show" dialog box that lists each of the custom shows in the presentation.
