Automatic Timed Hyperlink

I was wondering if it is possible to create a link that automatically "clicks itself" in PowerPoint 2011. I want the person using the PowerPoint to be able to scroll between the 2 slides, but when the timer (5 minutes) is up, the user will be automatically (i.e. he doesn't have to click anything) redirected to another PowerPoint, regardless of which of the two slides he's on.

I already know the basics of creating hyperlinks such as linking to a webpage or document, so the only part I don't get is the automatic hyperlink with a timer.

Since you're allowing the user to move between 2 slides, you can't rely on a transition to do your timing. You would have to use some VBA programming to do this.
