Minimize PP Slide Show

Ok - everyone has been so helpful on this site and I have learned so much so
kudos to all of you for your help.

I have one last question and I believe I have this project wrapped up (at
least until a user comes up with another requirement).

During the slide show presentation there is a need to minimize the slide
show. If a user is taking the on-line training and need to "pause" to
accomplish some "real" work, he needs to be able to minimize the show and
then restart where he left off. I was able to create a macro (from online)
that was successful for minimizing the show and placing it on the task bar,
but when I tried to bring it back all I got was a total black page that I
then had to ctl/alt/del to even continue anything.

Here is the code:

Sub MinimizeSlideShow()
Application.Run "PPShortcuts.ppa!MinimizeAllSlideShows"
End Sub

I have downloaded and installed the shortcuts package.

So how do I properly minimize the slide show from a button and then properly
bring it back to where it left off?

Thanks again.

But there is no way to accomplish this with a button and a macro? Any why
what I was trying to do came back with just a full black screen?

Thanks,

It seems like the "Window" key along with the D key does exactly what I am
looking for. Is there a way to simulate in the macro these 2 keystrokes?
