SYMPTOMS
When you show presentations with the PowerPoint Viewer using a playlist, the show may stop after the first presentation if you press the ESC key to cancel any dialog box or menu.

This problem occurs with the PowerPoint Viewers that ship with PowerPoint 4.0 and PowerPoint for Windows 95.



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, do not use the ESC key to cancel dialog boxes or menus before running your slide show.



STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
