I am trying to make a slide for an educational talk that has a list of
choices to a question that the audience must select several of the optional
answers as correct. I would like to create several action buttons at the
bottom of the slide that I can click and have a shape identify each correct
answer as it is named. As the audience may not answer in order, a custom
animation to sequentially do this is not a feasible option. Basically I need
to be able to choose from the action buttons to do their command in the order
I click each button. Obviously I would need to keep in mind which button
corresponds to each action. Thanks.,
 
Which version of PPT are you using? I am not sure if the "action" you want
is an animation or something else. If it is an animation and you are using
PPT 2003 or newer, you can use triggered animations to do much of what you
want. To get to the triggers options, right click the animation and go to
the timing tab. Click the triggers button. Select "On click of" and then
select your button from the drop down list.
