1 Advanced PowerPoint/Exercise 2 Creating A Presentation With Action Buttons and Hyperlinks In your first presentation, you created links from Excel to PowerPoint. These links automatically updated the Investments Worksheet slide and 3-D Pie Chart slide when you opened the presentation. Sometimes when running a slide show, you want to open another program, directly from PowerPoint, show the audience the affect of a change. For example, when presenting the slide showing your Investments Worksheet, you may want to refresh the data during the presentation and have the spreadsheet and the chart both change. You may wish to show the Yahoo financial charts updated to the minute or you may want to link one PowerPoint presentation to another presentation. PowerPoint allows you to do so using interactive documents. An interactive document is a file created in one program, such as Microsoft Word, and then opened during the running of a slide show. OLE stands for object linking and embedding. Many programs such as Excel, Word, Publisher, Internet Explorer, and others can link with PowerPoint. Open an Existing Presentation t 1. Start PowerPoint. 2. The PowerPoint dialog box opens. 3. Select Open an existing presentation. 4. Select Stock Portfolio Presentation Click OK.
