how to remove the underlining for hyperlink text in powerpoint?

One way is to select the hyperlink text, and press Ctrl+Shift+F9.
This will remove the underline. This will also render the
hyperlink text no longer clickable.

Hi Cjkalyan,

I think Garfield may have missed the 'in Powerpoint' in your subject line <g>.
The procedure mentioned works for Word but Powerpoint has its own way of doing things when it comes to the underlining of working
hyperlinks <g>

See if the information here from the Powerpoint FAQ helps.

For additional questions on Powerpoint you may want to also post in the Powerpoint newsgroup (link below). When posting please
include the version of the app you're using (answers can vary by version) and it's often clearer if you include the question in the
message body, rather than just the subject line <g>

Oops... I did miss the part about Powerpoint. In addition to the
suggestions in the Powerpoint FAQ, you can do two other things:
1. Select the hyperlink, press Ctrl+C to copy, and click on
Edit | Paste Special | Paste: As: Unformatted Text | OK. This
will convert the hyperlink to underlined text. Select the
underlined text and press Ctrl+U to remove the underline.
2. In Powerpoint, click on Tools | AutoCorrect Options |
AutoFormat As You Type | uncheck the "Internet and network paths
with hyperlinks" box | OK. This will prevent Powerpoint from
converting internet and network paths into clickable hyperlinks
to begin with.
