Worship Him and PowerPoint:
Using PowerPoint presentations and slideshows in
your worship service is easier than ever now with Worship Him's PowerPoint features. Even
if you don't have PowerPoint installed, the free PowerPoint viewer from Microsoft can be
used to launch presentations or slideshows.

You can insert PowerPoint presentations right
into your cue lists for easy access, and even
import them into Worship Him for the same kind of dynamic point-and click
display Worship Him gives you with songs. (Import requires PowerPoint97 or
higher.) Just point and click on a slide to project it. For more details,
see 'Imported PowerPoint presentations' below.

You can also launch PowerPoint presentations
on the fly. Again, you will be given
the option of importing the presentation (if PowerPoint is installed), launching it in the
projector's display, or launching it in the primary display.

Launching PowerPoint shows in the projector's display: No more switching
to the primary monitor for PowerPoint slideshows! Worship Him can launch them directly
into the secondary display, even with older versions of PowerPoint. Note: This option will
only work properly if you save your presentation as a 'PowerPoint show' (*.pps) so your
presentation will begin automatically when it is launched from Worship Him.

Imported PowerPoint presentations:
Imported presentations and slideshows can be
presented in dynamic fashion without the fumbling of shuffling around to find the slide
you want. Your slides are spread out before you and
all you have to do is click on
a slide to show it. If there are more slides than can fit on the screen, just use
the scrollbar on the right hand side to scroll through them, or click the 'Zoom -' button
to see more slides per screen. You initially start with 3 rows of 3 slides each, but you
can zoom out until all the slides are visible on one screen if you wish.

How it works:
When a Presentation is imported, Worship Him
calls on PowerPoint to create .jpg images of all the slides in the presentation. These
images are stored in the Shared documents\Worship Him!\temp\ folder. Then, the images are loaded into
Worship Him for easy selection and display. Once the imported presentation window is
closed, the temporary .jpg images are deleted.
