How to Hide Speaker Notes During a Slideshow
Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 contains the speaker notes feature, which allows you to type in notes to accompany your presentation so that you can remember all the verbal points you wanted to make. If you are using your computer to display the presentation on another monitor, like a projector, you can activate Presenter View, which will hide the speaker notes from the screen displayed by the projector.
