Navigating To A Slide Through the Slide ID

[Guest]

How can I write a macro so that a click on a certain slide object
cause another slide to be viewed based on its slide id?

Thanks.

The following macro should help you get started:

---
Sub GotoSlideById(ByVal SlideId As Long)
Dim Sld As Slide

With SlideShowWindows(1)
Set Sld = .Presentation.Slides.FindBySlideID(SlideId)
If Not (Sld Is Nothing) Then
.View.GotoSlide Sld.SlideIndex
End If
End With
End Sub

Assuming you want this to happen during a slide show, then to go to slide 42,
assign this macro as the shape's action setting:

Sub GoToSlide42()
SlideShowWindows(1).View.GoToSlide(42)
End Sub
