Hi,

I am developing a game using MS Powerpoint 2007. In this game user is
supposed to click hyperlink on the powerpoint. I have to add 1 to my
counter when user is clicking such hyperlink so that I will know how
many times the user actually clicked such hyperlink. Please let me
know how I can add 1 to my counter and get the final result of the
counter.

Thanks

Sri
 
The easiest way may be to use an action setting to fire a macro that
increments your counter then hyperlinks to a location stored in the object's
tags.

How are your VBA coding skills?

As Bill says it can only be done with vba (AFAIK!). This code should work to
eg link to slide 2 (change as required)

Dim counter As Integer
Sub countme(oshp As Shape)
ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.GotoSlide (2)
counter = counter + 1
If oshp.HasTextFrame Then
oshp.TextFrame.TextRange = counter
End If
End Sub
