I have a Family Feud-like slide that I created. Currently you click on
a text box and it flips, dings and shows the answer. Click to the side
of a text box and it triggers a X and buzzer. Works fine as designed
but I'd like to improve it.
Since I have to click the appropriate area, participants can tell
before the animation kicks in if they got the right answer or not. I'd
like to somehow trigger the event without people seeing it.
I was thinking something like a macro tied to a keystroke combination,
that props for input but without showing it on the screen. I could
have my text box shapes named Answer1 through Answer5. If the input is
1 to 5 the appropriate text box would be triggered. If anything else
the big red X would appear.
Using VBA, how would I
1) accept input from the keyboard without showing it on the screen
2) trigger the animation proper animation sequence?
PPT 2003.
Thanks.
