hi i'm designing a ppt presentation for the new beta 2007 ppt and am having
problems with the hyperlink actions. i have quite a few entrance and exit
animations on previous and further slides but not on the slide with the
hyperlinks - i have 16 different hyperlink actions within the main slide
which link through to other slides within the presentation. the problem i'm
having is that once you have clicked on one hyperlink (usually the first one)
and then go back to the main slide (where the 16 actions are) you are unable
to click on a different action...its as if its automatically selected the
first action you've clicked to run through the entire show. now sometimes i
can click through two or three different actions before this happens and
they'll work but the majority of the time i can only click one and then i'm
doomed to have to reopen the slideshow to try again.

i'm new to ppt but have tried allsorts and read a few things in the
communities but nothing that seems to relate to exactly this - can someone
help?

thanks
 
Put a blank slide before the one with all the hyperlinks and link back to
it. Looks like Microsoft still returns you to the slide after all the events
have taken place.
