Stopping the movement of slides

[Jessica]

Hello again!

Thanks for all the help you gave me last time!

I'm having another issue now!

Is there anyway to stop the slides progressing when the wheel on the mouse
is turned. I don't want the person watching to be able to go any further
until either they click on a button or a link...

Any suggestions?

Cheers

Jess

Jessica,
What happens if you set the presentation to be browsed at a kiosk. Slide
show - setup show - browsed at a kiosk.
That should disable all means of transition except the ones you provide
yourself, like action buttons and hyperlinks.

Slide Show > Set Up Show > View at a Kiosk will do this (except when the
viewer is used instead of the full program)

Is this something that MS can fix? Or is possible to write VB code to
disable the wheel?

Sounds like a role that Kiosk mode could handle. You can require than a
link be clicked to advance a slide.
