I thought of some more questions!
1) How could you make information (such as "John") appear in another textbox
a slide away?
2) How could make the info from step 1 save itself
3) And last: if you press a button, then the next time you open it, it
skips a certain slide.
Thanks in advance! |

Assuming you know that the textbox is on, say, slide 42 in is named "MyText"
With ActivePresentation.Slides(42).Shapes("MyText")
.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = "John"
End With

Don't understand the question ... what's "it"?

Thanks for the first two! It helped a lot!
What I mean is that when you press a certain picture on a slide, the next
time you open it, the presentation skips an amount of slides and goes
directly to a specified slide.
Thanks in advance!

One thought is to have VBA hide the slides and then save the presentation.
For example if you hid slides 1-10, the next time it would open, it would
start at slide 11. Something like:
ActivePresentation.Slides(1).SlideShowTransition.Hidden = msoTrue
to hide the first slide.

One possibility is to have the picture you click on use an Action Setting of Run
Macro. The macro it runs could hide any slides you no longer want the user to see.

I don't know that you *can* change the setting via code.

The show's already running at that point; I doubt changing the settings would
work.
BUT
You might be able to do something like this in code:
- note the current show position
- quit the show
- change show settings, including StartingSlide
- start the show
BUT
In looking for something that might help with the above, I stumbled on the
.AcceleratorsEnabled property of SlideShow view.
That might be exactly what you were looking for in the first place.
