[AG-TECH] quick dppt question for multi display systems

[Steve Gallo]

Lewis,

I have not had this problem, as I have the PPT slideshow come up on
one of the projectors and the PPT program itself on the operator console,
where I iconify it when it is being used as a client.  Maybe I'm
misinterpreting what you are saying though.

Steve
