Default Following Hyperlinks in Normal View


I was wondering if it's posssible to write vba code to follow a hyperlink
when in Normal view. I know that in SlideShow view the hyperlinks work fine,
but I want to be able to open hyperlinks from Normal view too.

I used the macro recorder to record right clicking and selecting open
hyperlink but ideally I want to be able to follow the hyperlink directly, by
just clicking on it, or on the mouse moving over the link.

I hope it isn't impossible and hopefulyl someone can help me.

I have Windows XP Professional
PowerPoint 2003

Thanks,

Rodyna

Hi Rodyna,

I have tried doing this in the notes page, but it is somewhat problematic.
Identifying the link is not that difficult, but deciding if the selection is
intended for linking or editing is. See:

Thanks Bill

I had a feeling that it wasn't impossible only very difficult. Thanks for
your help.
