Linking from Powerpoint to a specific Excel worksheet

Hi,

I've got a tough nut to crack. Does anyone know how to create a
hyperlink in Powerpoint that will direct the user to a specific
worksheet in Excel? For instance, in an Excel file, there could be
Worksheet A, Worksheet B and so on. I need to link from Powerpoint to
Worksheet B of the Excel file.

I'm using Office XP. Thanks a mil!

Hi
in Powerpoint enter the sheet+cell reference with a leading '#'
directly after the path+filename. E.g. enter the following as hyperlink

D:\Temp\Book1.xls#Sheet3!A1

as far as I know, you go to Insert Hyperlink, and browse
for the file, and then at the end insert something like
this for the specific workbook:
C:\...\Blahblahbla.xls!Worksheet2!

Try it and see if it works.
