SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft PowerPoint, when you use the Presenter Tools and you press F1 to run PowerPoint Help, no Help topic is displayed as expected.



CAUSE
There are no Help files currently associated with the Presenter Tools.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.



Set Up a Presentation to Run on a Second Monitor
You must use a Microsoft Windows 98, Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition (Me), or Microsoft Windows 2000-based computer and have dual-monitor hardware installed to use this procedure. Use this procedure to run a slide show on the full screen of a secondary monitor while you view the Presenter Tools on the primary monitor.
 * 1) On the Slide Show menu, click Set Up Show.
 * 2) Click to select the Show Presenter Tools check box.
 * 3) In the Show on list, click the monitor that you want the slide show to appear on, and then click OK.

When you now run your slide show presentation, you have you own view, not visible to your audience. This view allows you to do the following:
 * See what bullet or slide is coming next.
 * Pause the show by replacing the show with a black screen.
 * See a list of keyboard shortcuts.
 * Jump easily and directly to any slide.
 * Read or edit your speaker notes.
 * End the slide show.
