I would like to open a jpg file in a powerpoint presentation in order to
explain one item by one click and after the explanation with the jpg file, I
would like to go back to the item where I left by another click. Can
someone advise me how to set this up.

Thanks,

Scott

Make the .jpg a link to another hidden slide. The hidden slide contains the
'opened' .jpg and any other relavent information. Have the larger/open .jpg
link back to the original slide.

Will that accomplish the desired result?

Troy,

Thanks for your advice. I tried it and got my desired result. However, it
is a bit ugly. Is it possible to modify to the following:-

1. I use Action Button to move to other slide. Can I use "item
description" as the Action Button like it on webpage. I just click the
words and goes to my desired slide.

2. On the slide with jpg file imported, can I configure to scroll the
page up and down as it may be in portrait while the slide is in landscape.

Thanks,

Scott
