Hyperlink Question

[TonyT]

Hi,

The hyperlinks in my presentation seem to work on my computers that
have PowerPoint. But when I try on my new Vista machine the links in
the PowerPoint only work to the PDF files and not to other PPT's or
PPS's.

?????

Thanks,

Tony T

Which version of PPT?

And what happens when you click one of the links? Error messages or (the
dreaded) Nothing.

Created in 2003 - using new viewer on Vista machine - No error message
- nothing happens. I do notice that the mouse icon is always a hand.
in other words. normally the arrow icon changes to a hand on the
hyperlink. The icon is always a hand (finger)

Sounds almost as though there's a link on the whole slide covering up the other
links (but probably not, since the links below it wouldn't work in other PPT
versions). Or, more probable, a link on entire slide with the other links over
it, links set on shapes that are unfilled.

A bingo?
