I have made some hyperlinks within the presentation, so I can easily
jump from one part to another in the presentation.

I also found a way to change the color of the link so that it fits the
slide.

But how can I change the color on the hyperlinks from slide to slide.
And not have a custom color for all the slides.

And is there anyway I can get away the underline from the tekst when it
has a hypelink ??

And last.. Do you have any tips on some great clipart pages, so that I
can brighten up my presentation a bit :)

Generally, you have to change the color scheme to do this.
But how can I change the color on the hyperlinks from slide to slide.

You can leverage multiple masters. Maybe more trouble than you want to
go to, though. http://www.echosvoice.com/creatingmultiplemasters.htm has
instructions.

Select the textbox itself, not just the text, and the underline
shouldn't appear. Alternatively, place a no-line/no-fill autoshape on
top of the text and link that instead.
And last.. Do you have any tips on some great clipart pages, so that I

http://dgl.microsoft.com (leads to Office online) has a good selection.
You might google for Clip Art. I'm sure that would turn up a bazillion
hits.

For each slide, click on Format, Slide Color Scheme,
change your color scheme and click on apply instead of
apply to all.

Create a text box with the text you want in it. Click on
the outside edge of the box to select the box (but not the
text) and then click on Insert, Hyperlink to have the box
be the hyperlink instead of the text. I'm not sure if
this works for PPT97, but PPT2000 or higher does work.

I download most of mine from Microsoft's clips on-line and
then I group and/or ungroup them to make them my own.

www.presentersuniversity.com has some nice
tutorials/articles about this subject

thx for the tips...

It seams like I have to go with the no bg and no line object and link
that. Then I can have both of what I wanted.

The color of the text I wish, and a hyperlink without a underline :)

That multi master thing is not something I want to go through :p
