Insert object - as icon

C

Candace

I inserted a Word object on one of my slides. I set it to display as an icon,
because I did not have enough room on the slide to display the data. I did
not create a link to the document because some machines that will display the
slideshow will not have this Word document; so I embedded the object. I can
double click the icon while I'm not running the slideshow and it opens just
fine. But I am not able to double-click the icon while the slideshow is
running. Why can't I?

You need to set the object's animation for it to open during slide show.
Which version of PPT are you using?
