I have an office 2003 application that deals with hyperlinks. Upgrading it
to office 2007. However, in office 2007 the slide.hyperlinks object is
supposed to return all links on the slide. While this works in 2003, it does
not in 2007. The slide.hyperlinks object only returns links that are not
within text.

Is this planned or a bug? If it is planned, what is the correct way to get
these links out of text? I haven't found a good way to do this.

Thanks for any help...

Andy

Hi Andy,
This is a bug in PowerPoint 2007. You will need to enumerate the runs in the
textbox to detect hyperlinks.

Thanks Shyam.

I've noticed the following behavior with hyperlinks. If the first character
in a textbox is a hyperlink it will recognize every hyperlink on the show
provided there is not a non-hyperlink character. Once it encounters a
non-hyperlink character it will not recognize anything else after that.

Forgive me, but I am not sure I understand what you mean by enumerate runs.
Check by character, word or sentance?

Thanks for your help.
