Does anyone how to open a single PowerPoint file in two separate windows?
For example, I have two PowerPoint windows open and they both have help.ppt open. In one window is slide #1 and on the other window is slide #10.
The purpose of this is so that I don't have to navigate back and forth between different slides.
Adobe Reader has this functionality – click on Window -> New Window and you'll have two windows for the exact same file.

Make a copy of the file and open that copy in another instance of Powerpoint.
This assumes you don't need the file and its copy to be linked in any way, so keep track of any changes.
