SYMPTOMS
When you apply the Play Sound on Mouse Click or Mouse Over action
setting to a selection (text or graphics), the selection does not
appear as a hyperlink. In other words, it does not change color and it
is not underlined.
CAUSE
The Play Sound option in the Action Settings dialog box does not apply
the hyperlink property to a selection.
NOTE: You can apply both a Play Sound and a Hyperlink action setting
to a selection.
WORKAROUND
If you do not want to create a hyperlink, but you want the selection
to appear as a hyperlink, manually change its color and add an
underline.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in
Microsoft PowerPoint 98 Macintosh Edition.
