Ray,One way of finding JAWS keystrokes for an application is to go to the Keyboard Manager with the application open, and scroll down the list. It looks like JAWS Key+F7 gives you a list of links, just as it does in browsers and in MS Word, and Shift+Control+Enter follows a selected link in a slide. Since I don't used PowerPoint, I haven't tried these commands.

Hello All: My boss and I have a question. When you have a PowerPoint Presentation, and you put it into slide show view with F5 and you have hyperlinks in the slides: 1. How do you know where the Hyperlinks are, as JAWS does not say 'Link' before saying what the label on the hyperlink is? 2. How do you click Hyperlinks in slide show view? I tried pressing enter on each link and all I get is a message that there is no pointer on the slide and I have to open context menu to select one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
