When you find that an expanded slide pane in normal view isn't large enough, or if you simply prefer working in the slide view from previous versions of Microsoft PowerPoint®, you can quickly switch to traditional slide view in PowerPoint 2000. In this view, the slide fills the entire work area of the screen.

Here's the fastest way to switch to traditional slide view: Hold down CTRL and then click the Slide View button in the lower-left corner of the PowerPoint 2000 window.
