hyperlink to a click-through PowerPoint presentation

[Becky-graphics]

We have created a menu of various PowerPoint presentations. Some
presentations advance automatically and they work fine from the hyperlinked
menu. But some presentations are click-through and advance on a mouse click,
they work fine if independently ran, but if opened through the hyperlinked
menu, they don't advance at all. No keys work to advance the slides or text,
it never makes it past the first slide. Can anyone help us out?????? Thank
you.

You can't have it running in kiosk mode. If so, the hyperlinked presentations
will also be running in kiosk mode.

To fix this, open the main presentation with menu.
Click Slide Show > Set Up Show.
Select Presented by a speaker (full screen).

If you want to prevent current slide from advancing when performing a mouse
click, instead of setting it as a kiosk mode, this is what you can do:
Click Slide Show > Slide Transition.
Uncheck On mouse click.
