I have made an index page with text boxes and buttons that hyperlink
to other PPT presentations. It works fine but when I mouse over the
buttons they show the path to the folder and file name of the linked
presentation. The test box doesn't show this, only the button.
I would like to remove this and not have a tool tip on mouse over. Can
someone help. I have tried Sonya's tip #16 and it isn't doing the job
on the buttons (or I am doing it wrong).
TIA

Closest you can get is to use the steps in that QuickTrick #16 and just put
a space in there. The "tip" will still show up, but it will seem empty.

I stumbled upon that during my efforts but thought there should be a
better way. Guess not, so that's what I'll do. Thanks for your help.
