hello everybody,

sorry if the subject has been already asked here, but I have not found any answer in this forum.

I want to make an summary made with the section names, in a textbox on the left of all the slides. no problem so far.
what is the point, is when I want to attach a hyperlink to each section name so that the user can jump directly to the section he is interested in (I'm doing a elearning document for my students).

my question is :
is there any mean to change the color of text of a hyperlink and suppress the underline, by VBA?
I'm using PowerPoint 2010

thanks for your answer.

There's no way to suppress the underline and the color can only be changed for the whole presentation.

A possible workaround might be to cover normal text with transparent shapes and add the link to those shapes or simply not use text for the link at all.

Thank you John for your reply, that confirms what I thought.
that's exactly what I have done (covering the textes with transparent shapes).
once again, thanks a lot

You could add text boxes and put the hyperlink on that
