MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / December 2007Switch slideshow with function key
I´m running a slideshow i ppt 2003 and would like to switch to or link to an other slideshow or an other document when I press for example F8. Anyone know how?? //Gunnar Hi, Why not use a hyperlink or trigger? Are you trying to avoid a mouse click for some particular reason? Else, Insert| Object| Create from File| Browse to your presentation. Click OK. Right click on the inserted object| Custom animation| Add Effect| Object Action| Show. Then double click the animation entry, Timing tab| Triggers button| Start effect on the click of.... and select your presentation object. Then it will run when you click on it directly.

I am running a slideshow with about 30 slides and where 6 of the slides are hyperlinks to en Excel-document . That Exceldocument is on the local drive. On another computer I have the same Exceldokument and there I do some updtates, saves the file and then copy it to the computer with the running slideshow. When an unvisible object is passing the mousepointer it starts a macro that uptate all links in the slideshow. As you see the mouse is busy so I want to use some type of key to start a program or a linik to another document. That I would like to do at any time in the slideshow. I'm using this during a hockeygame and when there is a goal I would like to press a button and switch to something showing a flashing GOOAAL and if something other happends I press another key something else happends.
