Okay, thanks.
Insert|Object|Create from File. Navigate to your PPT file. Click the Link
option.
Right-click the slide (or icon) on your slide and choose Action Settings.
Choose Object Action|Open.
Or, on the hyperlink object, right-click and choose Action Settings. Click
Run Program and browse to your PPT file. You'll need to change the "files of
type" box from Programs (exe) to All files when you're browsing for your PPT
file. This will open the file in PPT in Normal (Edit) View.
I don't think you can create links like these to individual boxes in a
diagram (Insert|Diagram), so you'll want to use separate autoshapes for the
diagram, or you'll need to place no-line/no-fill objects on top of the
diagram to serve as "hot spots." However, don't make the fill 100%
transparent if you plan to show in the PPT Viewer -- there's a bug that
makes the Viewer not respond to links on 100% transparent objects. Use 99%
transparency, and it should be okay.
