There is an unpublicized public variable named "rdcmndGotoSlide". I haven't tried it myself, but it appears to use an index number to determine which slide to navigate to (NOT a slide name).

From the Captivate ActionScript class "captivate.monalisa.rdMovie":


if (_loc1.m_movie_mc.rdcmndGotoSlide >= 0)
{
var newSlide = _loc1.m_movie_mc.rdcmndGotoSlide;
_loc1.m_movie_mc.rdcmndGotoSlide = -2;
bToChangePause = true;
_loc1.gotoSlide(newSlide, true);
_loc1.m_movie_mc.rdinfoCurrentFrame = _loc1.m_currFrame;
_loc1.m_soundHandler.ResetSounds(true);
_loc1.playerPauseMovie();
} // end if


the above code references the method "gotoSlide()"; the passed variable "newSlide" is a number representing the index in a slide array named "m_slideData_array" (as shown below):


function gotoSlide(index, force)
{
var _loc1 = this;
var _loc2 = index;
if (_loc2 >= _loc1.m_slideData_array.length)
{
_loc2 = _loc1.m_slideData_array.length - 1;
} // end if
if (_loc2 < 0)
{
_loc2 = 0;
} // end if
if (_loc1.m_quizPlaybackController)
{
var currentSlide = _loc1.m_quizPlaybackController.getSlide(_loc1.m_currSlideIndex);
var _loc3 = _loc1.m_quizPlaybackController.getSlide(_loc2);
var errStr = _loc1.m_quizPlaybackController.allowedToGoToSlide(currentSlide, _loc3);
_loc1.m_quizPlaybackController.enableReviewMode(_loc3);
if (errStr == "")
{
_loc1.m_quizPlaybackController._gotoSlide(_loc3, true);
_loc1.gotoFrame(_loc1.m_slideData_array[_loc2].m_playOnFrame + 1, true, force);
}
else if (errStr == "QUIZ_ERROR_MUST_START_QUIZ_TO_SEE_SCORE_SLIDE")
{
_loc1.nextSlide();
}
else
{
return;
} // end else if
}
else
{
_loc1.gotoFrame(_loc1.m_slideData_array[_loc2].m_playOnFrame + 1, true, force);
} // end else if
_loc1.playerResumeMovie();
return;
} // End of the function



so you might be able to jump from slide to slide using index numbers, but keeping track of slide numbers could be more trouble than it's worth.
