Random Slides

[DEBSTER]

I went to the website given to make slides random. Downloaded the files and
it did not load on my computer. Is there anything else that I can do to get
random slides or am I missing a step from the website?

Did you try
http://www.tushar-mehta.com/powerpoint/download.shtml?randomslideshow/randomslideshow.exe

Usually to install an add-in you need to set Macro Security to Low first,
then return it to your normal setting afterwards.

Was this the file you're referring to? There's a few options in the tutorial.

Hi,
I use PP2003 but similar menu for other versions.
Goto menu Tools -> Macro -> security...
Should pop-up a dialog box where you select low.
Only needed if you want install an add-in.

If you use Brian Reilly's code (on that faq00429) it will give want you want
for free.
In your presentation press ALT-F11 then paste the sub code from the webpage.
Exit the VBA window. Now to randomise your slides just go to Tools -> macro
-> macros ... Click on "sort_rand"" and run button.

All you slides will be randomised and only play once.
