Mac Forum / Applications / PowerPoint / March 2007Action buttons have missing or changed hyperlinks
I have a group of students creating PowerPoint presentations on G4 laptops running Office v.X and have run into a few situations where they set-up hyperlinks to other slides, save and close. When they reopen the links are changed or point to slide 1. Digging around, I see this is a known bug in various PC versions of Powerpoint, where there is limited space for storing hyperlink information. Does anyone know if this is the same bug on the mac versions? If so, is it safe to assume that the workaround of linking externally to the slides will work, too?

Unless your students are plugging in an *awful* lot of hyperlinks, I doubt it's the same problem as on the PC. It takes quite a few links to trigger that particular problem. Have you tried applying all available updates to your copy of PPT though? There've been linking problems in past updates, cured I believe in the most recent updates. ================================================ Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ |
