easy question - I think!

[Shirley]

I am working on a PPT presentation. I have 30 or so slides. I would lik
to hyperlink a document to a list of documents. So the viewer can lin
to the document. I have the documents in word. Do I have to put th
document into a slide to make it work? I do not want to have the viewe
of the presentation get to the documents without using the hyperlink
The reason is that I do not want to add anymore slides to th
presentation, yet I want them available if the link is clicked.
Any ideas

Yes this is an easy question - but as a caution - it can also bring up
various "problem" items (all of which are explainable or easily overcome).
The quick answer is to do this:
- Type in the name, or description of the document you wish to link to.
- Select/highlight the description
- Go to INSERT >> ADD HYPERLINK (or CTRL+K)
- Browse to find your document**
** This is one of those caution items. Make sure the Word document is in the
SAME folder as the presentation.
- Done. Now when you run the slide and move mouse over hyperlinked text, the
mouse will change to the familiar pointing hand, click and, if Word is
installed on the computer, the document will open.

Thanks. I will do what you have suggested. Will put the presentatio
into a folder and add the documents. I have just put each one int
slide and they look pretty crummy. If I email the presentation, I wil
email the entire folder - right? - and then it should work!
Thanks they will look so much better in word format
