| Insert Hyperlinked Text SUMMARY: Add webpage, in-document, e-mail, and external document hyperlinks in your Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 presentations.
Depending on your Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 configuration, when you type a web address into a slideshow, PowerPoint will convert the address into a hyperlink to the webpage. There may be times, however, where you want to convert other text into hyperlinks, or perhaps you want hyperlinks to point to e-mail addresses, other files on your computer, or another slide in the current slideshow.
1. Type in the text you want displayed as the hyperlink.
2. Select the text with your mouse, then select "Insert" - "Hyperlink" or press CTRL+K.
3. Choose your hyperlink destination from the options that appear in the "Insert Hyperlink" dialog box. Options include:
* "Existing File or Web Page"
- File on your computer
- Browsed page
- Recent files
- Or, type in a web address in the "Address" text box.
* "Place in this document"
- Select a slide in the current document as the hyperlink target.
* "Create New Document"
- Allows you to create a new document and point the hyperlink to it.
* "E-mail Address"
- You can select an e-mail address and subject of the message that will be created when clicking on the hyperlink.
You can also click the "ScreenTip" button to display a pop-up dialog that will appear when a mouse pointer hovers over the created hyperlink.
4. When finished, click "OK" to create your hyperlink.
