Have you ever wanted to be able to jump to a random slide within your PowerPoint presentation? I’ve seen many teachers in particular asking for this facility so that they can have a button in a PowerPoint show which randomly selects a student’s name.

In this video I demonstrate how to create a PowerPoint slideshow which includes a button which will randomly jump to any slide within the slideshow, and with each slide having a different student’s name on it, this allows the teacher to select a student from the class randomly. The technique can be used in many different ways if you ever want to add a little randomness and unpredictability to your slideshow.

In this video I show how to write a line of code. You can either write this out yourself, or just copy and paste itL

ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.GotoSlide Int(Rnd * ActivePresentation.Slides.Count) + 2
