Make slide automatically go to another slide

[Jason T]

I am creating a presention to mimic a Flash presentation I developed. I am
pretty close to having everything figured out with the exception of one item.
I need to know how to go back to another slide automatically at the end of a
set of animations. Here is the scenerio:

I am one slide 6. I need to get back to slide 2 but do not want to click or
mouseover anything to get there. Is there any action or anything that will
allow me to go from slide 6 back to slide two at the end of animation of
slide 6?

Thanks,
Jason

Do you click to get to slide 6? If so, create a custom show and put slide
6 into it. Link to the custom show and click the "show and return" box
while linking. Set the transition of slide 6 to automatically advance. I
believe that will do what you want.

Will this work if there are slides after slide six. I did the auto advance
and it just goes to slide 7.

THanks,

If you link to a custom show and choose show and return, it should not
advance to slide 7 but return to the slide from where it came.
