Hyperlink to an Email Address from PowerPoint

Hyperlink in PowerPoint to an email address

© Wendy Russell

A hyperlink in PowerPoint can also start up an email program which is already installed on your computer. The hyperlink will open a blank message in your default email program, with the email address already inserted in the To: line.

1. In the Edit Hyperlink dialog box, click on E-mail Address.
   
   
2. Type the email address into the appropriate text box. As you start typing you will note that PowerPoint has inserted the text mailto: before the email address. Leave this text, as it is necessary code to tell the computer that this is an email type of hyperlink.
   
   
3. Click OK.
