Thanks for the suggestion, David. Shyam always has great stuff, and
this tutorial is no exception. Unfortunately, it doesn't yet answer
my question as to how to advance an InteractiveSequence animation
(page still under construction).
Kevin,
Firing a trigger sequence by code isn't supported natively. You could send a
mouse-click message to the shape under the current cursor position but it's
too klunky for a general solution.
Is this code running in slide show mode or design mode?

Thanks Shyam,
I'm sorry to hear that you can't control trigger sequences (at least,
not easily). I'm running this in slide show mode. Basically, this is
a checkbox that sets an option that the rest of the presentation will
reference. e.g.:
-----------------------------------------------------------
| |
| |
[quoted text clipped - 3 lines]
| |
| [X] go to random [ Go! ] |
-----------------------------------------------------------
When the user checks the "Go to random" checkbox, then every time
[ Go! ] is pressed, a random slide is brought up. When it's not
checked, then the [ Go! ] button just goes to the next slide (the
[ Go! ] button is part of the master, so it's repeated on every
slide). The program should also remember what the state of the
checkbox is so that the next time the presentation is run, it will
remember the user's preference and have that automatically set.
Thanks, all, for your suggestions.
