Action Buttons and Pictures

[Guest]

I have some action buttons that when clicked do nothing themselves but other pictures on the slide are triggered by clicking of the action button. The few slides are setup as a question. When the user selects one button, certain pictures appear on the slide and another action button. Depending on whether the user got the question right or wrong the new action button will send them where to go. If it was a wrong answer they have to do the question again. This is where the problem is. The user gets sent to another slide which eventually sends them back to the question. The pictures that came up on the slide when they first attempted the question have remained there even though the user has navigated away from the slide.

What is an appropriate action I can take to have a clear slide when the user is attempting the question for a second time

Using PP XP. Thank you in advance.

You can do this with or without VBA code. I prefer code since it gives me
much more flexibility, but does require a little programming knowledge. The
other option (simpler method) is to create a blank slide just before each
question with nothing but the background of the slide design on it. Set the
Slide Transition to "0" seconds so when you go to it, it immediately goes to
the desired slide(at the beginning of the slide). The way PowerPoint is
designed if you come back to a previously viewed slide, it goes to the "end"
of the slide. But linking to the blank slide, it will immediately take you
to the desired slide at the beginning so the animations work.
