2. Jeopardy v4.1 This version fixes some timer issues and updates the code to be compatible with 64-bit systems. The timer default is 30 seconds. To change it, go to the Setup menu. First: in order to use this program, you need to enable macros. In Office 2007, it will automatically ask if you want to enable the macros. If you have an earlier version, then use the setup menu to access instructions on how to enable them. To use this, simply edit the names of the categories to fit what you need, and then enter your questions (and answers) on the appropriate slides. Once you’ve entered all the questions, run the show. You must hit the “Start Game” button on this page (it will make sure all the questions appear). Click on the question chosen and that slide will come up. To start the timer, click the block of white squares. They will tick off to show the passage of time. When time is up, a stop sign will appear. Click the stop sign to reload the timer. To show the answer, click anywhere on the slide other than the timer or the back button. When the question has been answered, click the word “Back” in the lower right hand corner to bring yourself back to the main page. Once there, click the name of the team that got it right and enter the point value of the question. The score will be updated! Comments? Suggestions?
