Tip: The hyperlink itself can be text or an object such as a picture, graph, shape, or WordArt. An action button is a ready-made button that you can insert into your presentation and define hyperlinks for.
If the link is to another slide, the destination slide is displayed in the PowerPoint presentation. If the link is to a Web page, network location, or different type of file, the destination page or file is displayed in the appropriate application or in a Web browser.
In PowerPoint, hyperlinks become active when you run your presentation, not when you are creating it.
When you point to a hyperlink, the pointer becomes a hand, indicating that it is something you can click.
Use action buttons when you want to include buttons with commonly understood symbols for going to the next, previous, first, and last slides. PowerPoint also has action buttons for playing movies or sounds. Action buttons are most commonly used for self-running presentations—for example, at a booth or kiosk.
