Bluetooth adapter to run PowerPoint
I have just acquired a Belkin Bluetooth USB adapter to plug into my laptop so I can connect with me iPaq PDA. One of the reasons I wanted this was so that I could run and control a Powerpoint presentation remotely.
However, the Bluetooth wizard has no options for that sort of link up so can any one guide me as to how to make this happen? Do I need to load up some additional software to my PDA and or laptop.
I know there is software around for remote control of computers that are linked by the internet but that does not apply here.
Any thoughts would be welcome.

Julian

Jules,
I found this software that claims to control a powerpoint presentation with your PDA
Slide Show Commander.

Hi T Simmons,
Tried to find the Slide Commander software but no one seems to stock it anymore. Synergy Solutions were said to but they denied it so I'm still looking. I can find software that allows me to look at Powerpoint material on the PDA but not yet to control a laptop with the presentation.
Regards,
Julian
