Default Kiosk mode on certain slides only

Does anybody know of a way to either:

a) enable kiosk mode on selected slides only

or

b) disable arrow keys on certain slides only (meaning on certain
slides you can only move on by clicking on a hyperlink)

Thanks in advance

Default Kiosk mode on certain slides only

In Slide Show Slide Transition (2003), uncheck "advance slide on mouse
click."
In 2007 go via: Animations.

Even when this is unchecked, you can still advance the slides using
the arrow keys on the keyboard, which is fine on most slides, but I
want to select a number of slides where you can only advance by
clicking on the hyperlink I have created.

I don't think there's any way to have kiosk mode on selective slides. If you
explain why kiosk mode ISN'T appropriate for the remainder then maybe there's
a workaround which would allow kiosk mode for all slides?

Short of complex vba though there's no way I know to have arrow keys active
for only some slides.

Here is your solution: Put the entire show in Kiosk mode. Add an invisible
full screen navigational button to all slides that advances on mouse click
automatically to the next slide. Do not place the Navigational button on the
two slides that have your links. Voila! You have advancement except on the
two slides with links.
