    Some questions, because with this limited info you'll never get help.

    • 'text box': are your talking about a text caption, a shape filled with text or a Text Entry Box?
    • Which version do you use?
    • post a screenshot of the timeline of slide 5, please
    • how did you test: Preview (which one) or after publishing?

    Yes a text caption   I am using version 7.  Resent download of Captivate.  I have done it both ways.  I did the preview and then I also published to see if I could get that to work.  I also get the whole slide show and then just that slide.  When I preview just that slide I can get it to work.

    Are you talking about the green caption? Is it one you created yourself or a Success caption for the Click box? Because it looks like a Success caption.

    And please, can I see the timeline? If you created that text caption, want to see where it is timed, and where the click boxes are on the timeline. Second question if this is a created caption, not a Success caption: can you check in the Properties panel if 'Visible in Output' is checked?
