How to suppress slide advance from OnClick ?

[Allen_N]

I have found a way to turn an image thumbnail into a full-size image on a
slide. Basically, I put a large Image control on the slide and loaded the
picure, then I added a small Image control and loaded a thumbnail-sized
version of the original image. Next, I make the big image invisible.

In the VB Editor, I wrote the OnClick event of the small Image to make the
big Image visible (and the small one invisible), and the OnClick event of the
big Image to make itself invisible (and the small one visible again).

In a Slide Show, this works as desired when I click the small image: the big
one appears and the small one disappears. However, when I click on the now
visible big image, the Slide Show advances to the next slide.

It seems that I need to turn off the default behaviour, so that the slides
can only be advanced using the [Page Down] key. Can this be done?

Thanks !

Hi

If you have a version later than 2000 you do not need vba to do this. It can
be achieved with triggers. Because you can use animations the result should
be better and any problems with vba will go away!
