Jumping to another presentation

One of my users has two powerpoint presentations. Presentation A has 50
slides. Presentation B has 10 slides. What I'm wondering, is if on slide 27
in Presentation A, when he advances to slide 28, instead of taking him
there, it would open slide 1 of Presentation B. I know it can be done with
an action button, but the presenter will be using a remote controlled
clicker, not physically clicking with the mouse.

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Brad,

You should read Taj's site about linking PowerPoint shows:

Bill - I checked out the link. Thanks for that, very impressive document.
I'm using Powerpoint 2002, and I have a feeling I'm doing something wrong,
because whenever I create the links and perform the custom animation, all
the animation does is show the icon for the link, not actually show the 2nd
presentation. Since the screengrabs are from a different version of PPT, I
have a feeling I'm missing something or doing something wrong. When I opened
Taj's sample presentation, it showed two items that were animated, one had a
"gear" icon next to it.

Any thoughts?

Re-check your steps in the 14, 15, 16 area. Sounds like your link isn't
firing via the action setting.

In version 2002, at least on my systems, the 'appear' animation is not
required as long as the Object Action is set to Show.
