Hey Everyone,

I have a PowerPoint presentation that runs on various screens throughout the office. This presentation gets data from a database and displays all of the day's events...

I need to find a way to:

1) Stop the presentation on the hour every hour, then exit without saving
2) Re-open the presentation and have it automatically start the presentation slide show

Any help is appreciated

Hey again,

Answered my own question...

I simply did two scheduled tasks in windows. One that closes powerpoint every hour, and one that opens it 5 passed every hour.

I also have an auto event that runs the presentation macro when the presentation begins.
