Games - Education Interaction

[Guest]

I have the standard games in powerpoint, Jeopardy, Millionaire, etc., and I
am trying to teach other teachers about interactive uses of powerpoint
through some interactive games. I am wanting/trying to do one with "family
Feud", and "Wheel of Fortune". My hang up or problem is with finding an
answer to - if you click on a box, how do you make the answer appear?

For example, on the Feud game, you have all of your options for possible
answers, but when a student / teacher offers a random answer, if it is
correct, to be able to click and either reveal their correct answer or on the
"X", if it is wrong. It would be the same for wheel of fortune, of the
individual answers and also for the letters (one's used as call out letters).

Any help would be tremendously and greatly appreciated.

What version of PowerPoint are you using? If you are using 2002 or
greater, you can probably do what you want with Animation Triggers.
Otherwise, you might need a VBA solution.
