Inserting hyperlinks

To insert a hyperlink to an email address:

• Select the text or object you want to use as a hyperlink. In this example, we will use a picture.

• Select the Insert tab.
• Click the Hyperlink command in the Links group. The Insert Hyperlink dialog box will appear.
• Click Email Addresses on the left. If you are using text as your hyperlink, the text to display field will appear active and have the selected text inside.

• In the Email address field, enter mailto: and the email address you want users to contact (e.g., mailto:fakeemail@fakeemail.com).

• Enter a subject in the Subject field, if you wish.
• Click OK to close the Insert Hyperlink dialog box.

View the slide in slide show view. As you hover over the object, the pointer turns into the hand, and a default screen tip appears.

To edit or remove a hyperlink:

• Select the text or object with the hyperlink you want to remove.
• Select the Insert tab.
• Click the Hyperlink command in the Links group. The Edit Hyperlink dialog box will appear.

You can edit and remove any hyperlink the same way, regardless of whether the hyperlink is to a slide, email address, or webpage.
