Hi Bill. Thanks for quick reply.

It is sort of what we do today, but I want it to be more userfriendly as
well, and "Dr.MED.MySecretaryMadeThisPowerpointForMe" bullet proof.

How about looking up that shelve. I`m interrested

I had built one of these for myself (long story), but when I asked several
IT people at meetings, they were of the "we know what we are doing and do
not need anything like that" school. So I shelved it.

There are some basic tricks that will make it look better even running
without this type of Master program.
Use both monitors
Set the projector to the second monitor
Set your desktop background to the show's logo
Set shortcuts to the presenter's PPS files on the edge of the desktop
(in order)

My scenario:

I have loads of folders with different presentations sorted on a server,
but they are constantly being updated and new .ppt`s added from a
"speaker ready room".
Each folder represents a location (room) and subfolders represents a
speaker session hosted in that location with several speakers.
Nearly every speaker uses powerpoint.(some use adobe or keynote but
that`s a different story)

My goal is to make the sessions as flowing as possible by having a first
"Session master.pps" slide with nice logo, graphics and hyperlinks to
every .ppt file i the same folder.
Then the speakers only have to open their presentation by clicking the
hyperlink to their presentation, possibly by touchscreen.
This is no problem doing manualy, but time consuming and nearly
impossible to update in time for each session.
I want the hyperlinks to be generated automaticaly, in alphabeticaly
order, as the "master.ppt" file is opened and updated while running when
content of the folder is being updated with, new files, renamed files,
deletet files etc.

Why not take it further and make it hyperlink each session folder first
and then organise the presentations automaticaly.
THAT would be the ultimate solution for me rigth now.

Any help?
