Finding hidden links in a PPT (2002)

[jailyn]

I have a presentation that is causing a security alert when opened in
PowerPoint 2007 (trying to link to external content).

I have removed all active hyperlinks from the presentation (using PPT 2002),
I am not linking to external images - and it still gives this error in Office
2007.

How can I find out if there is a link or external content hidden somewhere
in the presentation?

Thanks

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the reply. I actually only have PPT 2002 - it's my clients who
are opening the file and getting the error. This is what they replied:

When I open it I get the standard “Security Warning: References to external
pictures have been blockedâ€. If I press the options button that follows the
warning the Security Alert tells me that if I choose to accept the security I
will be downloading pictures from “untrusted locationsâ€.

Do you have any thoughts on this? I truly appreciate your help.

Thanks,
Jailyn

I'm relatively sure that none of the images are linked. Of course, I'm not
ruling anything out at this point!

I'll grab the tool you recommended below and let you know how that turns out.

Thanks again for your help.
