Hyperlink question

[Jayfoxpox]

Is there a quick way to create hyperlinks that's bidirectional? I'd like to organize my notes and quiz myself and beable to click on the question to reveal the answer then click on the answer to go back to the question. I'd like to beable to do it on the fly while organizing my notes in lecture.



A second question, would the hyperlinks work in on an iphone? Thanks

In what Office program? If you did it in powerpoint you could hyperlink between slides. Have a slide with all the questions hyperlinked to the individual answer slides, and each answer slide with a hyperlink to return to the question slide. I can explain this in more detail if you think it will meet your needs. Also I dunno if it will work on iphone, I'll look at it tomorrow with one that I made and see. I'm pretty sure if you save it as a pdf with hyperlinks it will work on iphone but let me get back to you. In the meantime maybe someone else has a better solution?

By design, hyperlinks hyperlinks are always bi-directional in the sense that clicking on the 'back' button takes you back to where you were before. You should be able to display the forward and back buttons on the Quick Access Toolbar in whatever Office application you're using.

Macropod is right that would be much simpler inside of office. To use it across other devices, pdf would be the way to go. I just tested a sample I saved as a pdf, and text hyperlinks retain their link to slides on the iphone as long as you open it up in ibooks. It didn't work when i tried it from the mail preview, be sure to open it up ibooks or whatever pdf viewer you use. Hold it sideways and a regular wide format slide should fit nicely on the iphone. The reason for doing it the way I suggest is only because I'm thinking .pdf is the best way to view it on mobile devices and still retain hyperlink functionality.

Sorry I didn't specify , I meant Microsoft word.

I did used the back feature you mentioned and it works great thanks.

I guess pdf should do the job for what I'm looking for , thanks a lot .
