Black screen flash between slides in PP2003

J

James Burrell

Hi guys

I am trying to update a COM addin (written in VB6) designed for PP2000
to work just as well in PP2003. However when in slideshow mode, I am
getting a black flash between slides. This happens 60% of the time.

Putting breakpoints in my code reveals that the slideshow window goes to
black and then the SlideShowNextSlide event fires. PP redraws the
slideshow window after the event returns.

I have tried using a timer to place the code I need to run in the
NextSlide event in a separate process so that the event can return
quicker, but this does not eliminate the black screen flash.

I have also tried the following hotfix from Microsoft:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;843244

but this does not seem to work for me.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
