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?

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:
