Hyperlink bugs

I've created the jeopardy game in powerpoint, with point level hyperlinked to
a question, which in turn is hyperlinked to the answer, which in turn is
hyperlinked back to the main board where the process begins again. My problem
is that by the time, I've correctly linked all the questions and answers,
somehow one or more of the hyperlinks gets incorrectly links to an incorrect
one. This can happen at any of the three levels. I did the same thing before
on powerpoint 2000 with no problem. Is there a maximum number of hyperlinks I
can have in a slideshow? Is there a way to see a global view of all the
hyperlinks to see what's going on. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, PowerPoint has a limit as to how much space it has to
store hyperlinks. You have reached that limit. You can get more
information about this at:

Lost hyperlinks, hyperlinks link to wrong place, hyperlinks stop working

David,

Thanks for letting me know. Do action buttons also have the same
restrictions, i.e., finite space. Is their space located in a different
location than hyperlinks?
