I'm pretty new to this list, so I'm not sure whether this has been discussed before.
Has anyone else had problems inserting a hyperlink in an Impress presentation? Specifically I wanted to insert a link in which the target was http://www.google.com/search?q=define:Open+source and the displayed link text was "Google" (minus the quotation marks). I first tried inserting the hyperlink using the Insert > Hyperlink command. I specified the "target" and "text" fields, and although Impress created the link, it didn't work properly. The link was created, but it didn't go anywhere. I then tried inserting the same link but without specifying the link text. In this case, the target of the link is displayed on screen as the default link text. The resulting link worked perfectly. I consulted the help information and found I could also create a link using the Hyperlink Bar toolbar. I again tried to create a link with the previously mentioned target and name. It worked fine, too. This is an odd error, as I would have thought both the Insert > Hyperlink and Hyperlink Bar toolbar would use the same underlying mechanism.
