Go to a specific slide in powerpoint when creating the slides

This might be very simple to achieve, but I don't know how to see it through.
When I create presentations using MS powerpoint, I have to go from slide to slide (say from Slide 3 to slide 45). So far I have reached the required slide using the slide sorter.

For a similar requirement, MS Word has the option of Go to page which can be called using Ctrl+G keyboard shortcut.

Is there a similar shortcut to go to a particular slide while editing slides in MS powerpoint?

Update

From the answer below and from the internet search I understand that in Edit mode one cannot go to a particular slide (as one would go to a page in Word).

I wrote the following macro to implement this functionality.

'Go to a particular slide when in edit mode
Sub go_to_slide()
Dim S As Integer
Dim total_slides As Integer
total_slides = ActivePresentation.Slides.Count
S = InputBox("Enter slide number", "Go To Slide")
If (S <= 0) Then
MsgBox ("Enter slide number greater than zero")
ElseIf (S > total_slides) Then
MsgBox ("Enter slide number less than the total slides")
ElseIf (S <= total_slides) Then
ActivePresentation.Slides(S).Select
End If
End Sub

Is there a better/efficient way to implement this?

Solution 1:

Is there a shortcut to go to a particular slide in the presentation?

Presentation mode:

• Slide number+Enter, or

• Right-click a slide, select "Go to Slide" on the shortcut menu, and then select a slide from the list by title or slide number.

Edit mode:

• There is no function to navigate quickly to a specific slide.

Solution 2:

I just came across the same issue. For example to go to slide 60, my solution is to enter the presentation mode and go back to editing mode immediately afterwards: <F5> 60 <Enter> <Esc>. A few more keystrokes but fast enough and working well for me.

F5: presentation mode

60: the desired slide number

Enter: go to slide

Esc: back to edit mode, on the shown slide

Solution 3:

@Prasanna, thank you for your code, which didn't work for me but got me started.

This version works for me. I wish I knew how to assign a keyboard command (hotkey) to it.

Sub go_to_slide() 'Go to a particular slide when in edit mode. Adapted from https://superuser.com/q/1174096/74576
    Dim slide_num As Integer
    Dim total_slides As Integer
    total_slides = ActivePresentation.Slides.Count
    slide_num = InputBox("Enter slide number between 1 and " & total_slides, "Go To Slide")
    If ((slide_num <= 0) Or (slide_num > total_slides)) Then
        go_to_slide
    ElseIf (slide_num <= total_slides) Then
        'MsgBox ("Jumping to slide #" & slide_num)
        ActiveWindow.View.GotoSlide slide_num
    End If
End Sub
