Prevent hyperlink text from printing

[pk]

I have a hyperlink on the top of each page which jumps back to a slide
towards the beginning of the presentation. The hyperlink looks like this:

<<Return to "Speed" Summary>>

I would like to prevent the hyperlink text from printing when someone prints
the presentation.

Ideas?

PK,
PPT 2003?
If you are using a black and white printer you could choose View - Color and
grayscale, and switch to grayscale. Modify the settings of the textbox with
your hyperlink to not print by selecting the textbox and clicking on the
settings button of the toolbar. Choose 'do not show'. Not sure if the wording
is a 100% correct.
If you are using a color printer, you will need a macro.

Loc - thank you for your reply!

I would like to supress the printing of the hyperlink when printed in color
- it is an executive dashboard - their secretary would probably print in
color....

Could you provide the macro?

thanks again for any assistance

I'm by no means VBA savvy. But here's an earlier thread that discusses the
issue:

I'm sure others will drop in to help.
