Hello Starscream,

Here's a way to accomplish what you're after, I believe...good for PPT 2007 & 2010 for sure.

Add the sound to the hyperlinked button (answer), instead of placing the sound on the slide the hyperlink points to.

The steps:

• Right-click your hyperlinked button/text/etc., and choose Edit Hyperlink in the pop-up menu.
• In the Action Settings window, click the "Hyperlink to:" option in the "Action on click" section and use the drop-down to select the slide you want to jump to when the item is clicked.
• Then check the box at the bottom to "Play sound", and choose the appropriate sound file.
• Click OK.

Now whenever the answer is clicked, the sound will play as the hyperlink takes you to the target slide.

I hope that helps...good luck on the project.
George
