Hyperlinks not staying in document

S

Sue

I have created a file containing page that contain images that are linked to
other pages within the same presentation file. The problem that I am having
is that these hyperlinks will not stay. When I save and exit the file, they
either point to a different slide than I designated or they are linked to a
URL... that goes nowhere. Can anyone help? PLEASE. I have a deadline that
I've already passed due to these problems and would really appreciate any
help and/or suggestions.

Do you have a lot of hyperlinks. There is a limit to the amount of space
your hyperlinks can take up, and the behavior you describe is what
happens (without warning) when you reach that limit. See this entry from
the PPT FAQ:

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