Hyperlinking to an excel spreadsheet

[Guest]

Hello,

I would like to link to an excel spreadsheet either using hyperlinks or
action settings. I see how to link to the excel file, but I wonder if I can
point to a specific named range in the spreadsheet? I would like to have a
number of different slides point back to different sections of the same
spreadsheet.

Thanks!

Sure, no problem.

You just have to do it backwards.

Open the spreadsheet in Excel then

For each range you want to link:
Select the range you want to link then Edit, Copy
Switch to PPT
Choose Edit, Paste Special, put a check next to Link and click OK
