Trouble Setting Slide as Hyperlink Target

[fripper]

I am creating a simple PowerPoint presentation that consists of a series of
slides containing photos. In a table of contents I want to have some links
to various categories of pictures. In a couple of these links when I try to
insert the hyperlink and select the slide I want to use as the target the
Slide preview section of the Insert Hyperlink window is blank and the link
does not work. If I select other slides as my target the preview appears
and those links work fine. I must have done something that prevents some of
these slides from being legitimate hyperlink targets.

Thanks of any help that may be forthcoming.

The title of the target slide almost definitely contains a "funky"
character. The most likely "funky" character is a comma. Get rid of the
comma, and you should be able to set your hyperlink.

WOW! Thanks for the quick and helpful reply ... that's exactly what
happened. Ah yes, the :"funky character" problem ... why didn't I think of
that?!?

Thanks very much.
