Previewing your PowerPoint presentation

As you work on your PowerPoint presentation, you may occasionally want to preview the slides.  You can of course start a Slide Show but then you can't edit the slides unless you end the Slide Show. 

Want to be able to preview the presentation and edit slides? 
- Press and hold Ctrl then click on the Slide Show button

In PowerPoint 2003 the Slide Show button is at the bottom left of the screen.  In PowerPoint 2007 it is at the bottom right.

If you have two monitors, put the PowerPoint window on a different monitor to the preview so you can edit the presentation while the preview is open.

You can move back and forward through the slides in the preview using the same techniques as you would with a normal Slide Show.  To close the preview, press Esc.

Any questions, please let me know.
