Microsoft PowerPoint 2003

Toggle Showing Multiple Presentations as Multiple Taskbar Items

SUMMARY: Display or hide icons in your Windows Taskbar representing multiple PowerPoint presentations.
 
Depending on your configuration, when opening multiple Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 presentations simultaneously, you may have multiple items on your Windows Taskbar, one for each presentation. The advantage to this is that you can more easily select between different presentations.

Or, you may just have one Microsoft PowerPoint item on your Windows taskbar. To choose between different presentations, you would need to click the Taskbar item and then select the desired presentation from Excel's "Windows" menu. The advantage to this method is that your Windows Taskbar remains less cluttered.

To toggle this behavior:

1. From Microsoft PowerPoint 2003, select "Tools" - "Options".

2. When the "Options" multi-tabbed dialog box appears, select the "View" tab.

3. To see each open presentation as a separate item on the Windows Taskbar, check "Windows in Taskbar". To only see one Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 item in the Windows Taskbar, no matter how many presentations you have open, uncheck this setting.

4. Click "OK" to close the dialog box.
