Power Point Screen Auto Update

E

Easy EEE

I know this is something simple to do, but for the life of me I can't
figure it out. I have searched for examples all over the web and have
given up. So I am asking for some help with a simple slide.
Basically I want a slide to update a time script every time it
appears. I basically have a presentation that continually runs at
work and I would like to have a slide that keeps changing daily based
on the date function. It basically is to show the injury free days
since a certain date. I can get it to update in many different ways
except automatically. I was wanting it to update automatically so I
don't have to go in a change it every day.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi

I'd like to add to Steve's comment and request to know more about what
you would like to see happen.

For example, would you like to see data in a slide updated, but not the
slide itself? Do you want to update a graph on a slide? Do you want an
entirely new slide? Do you already have a mechanism in place to create
the new daily slide?

Give is more info and I think you'll be pleased with the result.

Thanks.

-Jim
