Hi

I have a training ppt/pps which I have posted to the
company intranet. It is set up so that the only way to
navigate to subsequent slides is to click on answer
buttons however I can not consistantly hide the scroll bar
to prevent viewers from scrolling to the end of the
presentation to register their completion.

Has anyone the solution for hiding (or in activating)the
scroll bar so that it can not be used for navigation?

thanks

Steve
 
I don't quite understand. Do you mean that you need to remove the "outline"
frame with the hyperlinks to all the individual slide titles? Otherwise, I
think the scroll bar just lets them scroll on an individual slide...

Need to know your version of PPT also.
 
Hi Steve,

Click on SlideShow, Set Up Show, Change to "Browsed by Individual", uncheck
the show scrollbar box, click ok. That should do it.

HTH,
Glenna

Hello,

If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that it's important that
PowerPoint provide this kind of functionality (without having to resort to
VBA or add-ins), don't forget to send your feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS,
please) to Microsoft at:

http://register.microsoft.com/mswish/suggestion.asp

It's VERY important that, for EACH wish, you describe in detail, WHY it is
important TO YOU that your product suggestion be implemented. A good wish
submssion includes WHAT scenario, work-flow, or end-result is blocked by
not having a specific feature, HOW MUCH time and effort ($$$) is spent
working around a specific limitation of the current product, etc. Remember
that Microsoft receives THOUSANDS of product suggestions every day and we
read each one but, in any given product development cycle, there are ONLY
sufficient resources to address the ones that are MOST IMPORTANT to our
customers so take the extra time to state your case as CLEARLY and
COMPLETELY as possible so that we can FEEL YOUR PAIN.

IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of
suggestions).
