"Hi my name is Dave Andrews, today I'm going to show you how to jump to a slide using an action button in PowerPoint. Let's begin by opening up PowerPoint. We're going to click on the start button at the bottom, go to all programs, Microsoft office, and last of all PowerPoint. This comes up with a default slide. And what we're going to do is create a new slide first, by right clicking over here on the left, and saying new slide. Let's say this is slide two. Let's insert another slide, and say this is slide three. Now back on our main slide that came up let's just type in slide two, and then right below it slide three. Now we're going to create the links to these slides. Just highlight the text, go to the insert tab at the top, and we're going to say hyperlink. Click on place in this document, and then select slide two, and say okay. Also do the same for slide three. Insert slide hyperlink to slide three, okay. Now on slide two let's say back to beginning, and on slide three back to beginning. Let's highlight the text in this slide, take it to a place in the document, and just back to the main slide. Now let's run our PowerPoint. As you can see I have links here to slide two and slide three. I'm going to do it out of order by selecting slide three. There's slide three, and we're going to go back to the beginning and go to slide two. My name is Dave Andrews, and I've just showed you how to jump to a slide using action buttons in PowerPoint."
