Power Point Time and Date Update

[Tal]

I'm having problem to show the current time and date on the second run while
the presentation is in a [Loop continously until 'ESC'] mode or kiosk.

Dose anybody know how to update the current time and date on the second loop
run ?

I believe that all objects are set at run time and don't update after that.
So, for example, when you choose background as a fill for an object, wherever
it's sitting when the presentation starts is the background that will show
even if you animate the object to move across the slide. Same principal for
the date/time. Here's a link to some alternatives for you:

Yes, Chirag's add-in. It was the second one listed on the link I sent you.
Should be perfect for what you were looking for.
