Doing multiple actions with a single hyperlink

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knows a way to both advance a slide and open a new
presentation with one hyperlink click?

The drawback is that it needs to be compatible with PowerPoint 2003 Viewer,
so macros are out unfortunately.

Many thanks.

Dave

Is this possible? Acutally I found one hyperlink could hold only ONE
action in PowerPoint.

It's not really possible but you could try having a transparent full slide
shape on the slide to be opened by the hyperlink and set a mouseover
hyperlink to the new presentation on it.

Hi John,

Thanks for the suggestion - it does the job nicely. A full screen mouseover
doesn't really work, as it keeps loading the other presentaiton every time
you're on the slide, but I've done a much smaller shape in the same place as
a "next" button on the previous slide, which solves that.

Thanks a lot!
Dave

Try grouping together the objects and linking it to the on going slide or
file. For example:
If you have objects A, B, C, etc (animated or otherwise) on a slide, then
group them as one object. Hyperlink the grouped object to a slide or a file.
In the presentation A, B, C will appear as three different objects and can be
clicked over to go forward to the destination slide or file.
