Adding Hyperlinks to Slides

A hyperlink is text or a graphic that when clicked opens another slide or file. When you point to a hyperlink, your mouse cursor turns to a hand, indicating that it is something that can be clicked. Text hyperlinks follow the color scheme of the presentation, and change color after they have been clicked.

To add a hyperlink from one slide to another slide in the same presentation:

1. Select the text or object you want as the link.
2. Click the Insert Hyperlink button on the Standard toolbar to open the Insert Hyperlink dialog box.
3. Under Link to: select the type of hyperlink you want: a hyperlink to an existing file or web page, to a slide in the current presentation, to a new document, or to an e-mail address.
4. Depending on the type of link you select, enter the specific link information.
5. Click OK to insert the hyperlink into your worksheet.
