Put your file into Kiosk mode. It's under Slide Show|Set up Show. You'll
have to provide navigation buttons or set automatic transition timings if
you use Kiosk mode.

You'll have to provide navigation buttons or set automatic transition
timings if you use Kiosk mode.

With VBA, that would be:

ActivePresentation.SlideShowSettings.ShowType = ppShowTypeKiosk

Thanks for reply, I try this code, but it can't disable mouse wheel scroll,
How to handle it?

The code I provided puts the presentation into Kiosk mode which disables
the scroll bar. However, a presentation can't change mode while it is
running, so if you are activating this code from within Slide Show View, it
won't disable the scroll bar until the next time it is put into Slide Show
View.
