Quiz on Powerpoint. Stopping people from clicking where they should not !

[andyj81]

I am trying to design a quiz, using power point, so when the user has
gone through all the slides, they will attempt some questions, a macro
keeps the score, depending if they have selected the correct answer or
not. My question is ;

I have made hyperlinks that work fine, but clicking outside the area,
ie, anywhere else on the screen, will make you progress through all
sides and not mean a valid score. How can I make it so people can only
click the right answer or maybe also exit the show ?

Can it be done ! Help. Andy.

Andy, you want Kiosk mode. Go to the Slide Show menu and choose Set Up
Show. Click on the box for "Browsed at a kiosk." Only hyperlinks,
buttons, and the Escape key will be active. For more quiz ideas with
PowerPoint, check out my Web site:

Andy,

Go to slide sorter view, select the slide you want to control, and uncheck
"Advance on Mouse Click". Should do the trick.
