Thread: Power Point 2003 - Getting rid of text at the end of slide shows

Whenever you view a slide show made in Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 by selecting "Slide Show", "View Show" or by pressing F5, at the end of the show a black screen appears with the text, "End of slide show - click to exit". From here, if you did not mean to end the slide show, you can press the cursor top key to get back to the previous slide. And if you want to end the slide, just press the space bar. However, if you do not need this functionality and want this black screen to disappear at the end of slide shows, perform this tweak:



• Click on "Tools' and then "Options".

• Click on the "View" tab from the multi¬tabbed dialog box.

• De-select the "End with black slide".

• Then click on "OK" to close the dialog box.
