Not sure how you can control word any better than powerpoint here....

Ahhh...young grasshopper. You have much to learn.

Create your PP presentation with the front page as icons/images/whatever representing the questions (a la a Jeopardy board or whatever). Then create an answer slide for each question. On the index slide right click on the image/text and choose "Action Settings..." and change the setting there for mouse click to switch to the correct slide. Put a link on the bottom of each of the answer slides back to slide #1.

Profit.@:-)

Exactly. Do I make PowerPoint slides that take more work and have graphics and crap along with the answers or just keep it simple and use Word docs that are single pages for every category? The teams will have five minutes to do anywhere between six and ten questions, then the answers will display. I only need to hold their attention for as long as it takes them to read the answer list.

I trust you are in C on LH405. I feel bad for any paying non-FT C pax on that flight.

Still waiting on the charter to start ticketing.

Nice! Now to see if I can cram enough stuff on the index slide to make all of the categories fit. Thanks for the idea; now to find out if it's doable...I think we're having 20-some categories on offer.

Cater the AC with fifths instead of minis?

Yeah...I'm in C. I got seat 15H which appears to be the aisle in the center section that is directly adjacent to the galley in the center of the C cabin. In other words, I get to sit on a bar cart and just drink my way through it. :D

Actually, wouldn't mind if they waited a couple of weeks, so the separate charges fall in different billing periods on the cc!;)

As much as I want to go, I just don't think it's going to happen.

Glad you got your tickets though. ^

You can do the 20 categories in a grid 4x5 and then a master slide for each and then answers (3 tiers instead of 2) if needed. There is certainly some work involved, particularly the first time around, but it will actually look good on the screen.
