Default Link Shape to Table in PowerPoint

Hi there,



I'm basically a beginner for PowerPoint, never really had any use for it.

I need to design a kind of "Hierarchy" chart for work. I know there are templates in PowerPoint for this type of thing, but none really do it for me.

My thoughts are to create a table on the very first slide (this would be hidden later).

On the second slide would be the workflow/hierarchy chart.

Is it at all possible to insert a shape, like a box, and link that box to the word/s in the first cube of the table? Similar to how it works in excel, except instead of linking to a cell obviously, it links to one of the cubes in the table.

Thanks

There's no built in way to do this. It can be done with coding but that would be way beyond most folk.
