In think one option here, and it's one I used, create a custom slide, that says "Place PPT Here", it's white with a black background. <br><br>Then the last thing before the service starts, when the projector is warming up, put the PPT into the service. If my wife was preaching, I usually got it, Sunday morning, about half an hour before heading to church, so I had one run through, to make sure it wasn't going to create issues. If she wasn't (happened once in a while), I would get it, when I got to church. Sometimes when there was no PPT, I would just delete the slide. <br>
