I am creating a Jeopardy in PowerPoint game for a friend. It has four categories with five levels for each category. I have the game designed with two exceptions.

1. I want the text on the object to dim when the object is selected and the player is directed to the appropriate slide. Then when the player clicks on the return to the game board button, I want the text remained dim so that the players know which objects have already been selected. i.e if the first player selects category 1 level 3, when they return to the game board slide, the text will be dim on that object. The next player may select category 4 level 2 and I want it to function the same way. Every time the players return to the game board slide, the buttons that have been selected are dim.

2. I'd like to be able to have two teams and the total point values for each team are calculated and displayed as the game is played.

Any ideas or suggestions are very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
