  Answer
  Place an object on the slide. (Box, circle, text, etc.) Then right click
it, select Actions, and then set it to hyperlink to the desired slide.

Also, while you are in slide show, you can simply type "G"(go
to)/11/Enter and it will jump to slide 11. Hope that helps.

  MC,
The G is not needed. You just need to type the number follow by the Enter key.

Or, since G does nothing in slide show view, just type 11 Enter.

  Is it possible to move from Slide 2 to Slide 12 and then back again, much
like a WWW hyperlink? These instructions below tell us how create links from
A to B, but some presentations may require A - B - A.
Thanks for any ideas!

The instructions below don't create any links ... they just explain how you can
jump to any slide in a presentation. If you know the number of A, you can use
the same trick to go back.

Alternatively, you can add a shape on B and assign it a "Previously viewed
slide" action setting. While it won't work exactly like the back button in a
browser, it'd certainly let you return to slide A once you'd viewed B
