Playing sound each time the slide is selected

[Heathg717]

Hello,

I am creating an interactive power point presentation that has a couple of
organization type charts in it. Each chart has links to other slides in the
presentation. When I click on the links, it takes me to the other slide and
plays the sound that I have designated it to. Then I have created another
hyperlink that takes you back to the organizational chart.

My problem is, it only plays the sound the first time I click on the
hyperlink. I want it to play the sound each time the selected slide appears.
So if I continue to go back to the organizational chart using the hyperlink
and click on the same link over and over agin, each time the sound and
animation will play all over again.

Is this possible?

Put a dummy slide in before the "real" slide with the sound. (It can even be
a copy of the real slide.) Give the dummy a 00-second automatic transition.
Link to the dummy slide. It will automatically move to the real slide
because of the 00-second auto transition.

The reason you have to do this is because when you link to a slide, PPT goes
to the end state, and you have to force it to come in from the beginning.
