Practice run of presentation changed font color of action setting

[Guest]

In Powerpoint 2003, I finally figured out (duh) how to jump to a supporting
slide then back to where I was by using action settings. When doing my
practice run, I clicked on the text containing the action setting to jump to
the supporting slide. Just like with an Internet hyperlink, the font color
changed. However, if I go to FORMAT FONT, the color selection is not
selectable. Well, gosh darn it, I need to get it back to its "normal" color.
I don't mind the underline, just the color change. Surely there must be an
option somewhere that I am overlooking that prevents the color change.
Thanks!

Right click your slide and select Design Template. In the Task Pane select
Color Schemes, then go to the bottom and click on "Edit Color Scheme". See the
last two color settings? Those control the colors of text in hyperlinks before
and after they are activated. experiment with changing them, but you probably
want to make them the same. But...if you apply the link to the text box, rather
than to the text, there will be no color change and no underline. Place your
cursor in the text and then press Escape. The text box is now selected. Try
applying the Action setting to the text box.

Sonia,
Thanks for your time replying to my post.
I was able to edit the color scheme and everything is cool. Alwasys nice to
learn something new.
Sorry to be picky, but with Powerpoint 2003, the right-click is on "Slide
Design" (there is no "Design Template").
Thanks again. I appreciate your help,.
