I have set up a slide show of various artists for an expo presentation. I'd
like Power Point to randomly choose the next slide. Has anyone had any
success with this?

Is the show to be self running or advance "on click" from a presenter /
audience?

For the former there are vba ways to shuffle the slides

see http://pptfaq.com/FAQ00429.htm

For the latter vba again can be used to go to a random slide

There's some info on vba and also a demo download of a non vba random action

It will be self-running.

The show will be continuously self running during the expo.

THanks,
