Sub changeLinkTargets()

Dim pptSlide As Slide
Dim pptShape As Shape

Dim oldString As String
oldString = "\\serverXY\DataFiles"
Dim newString As String
newString = "\\serverAQ\DataFiles"

For Each pptSlide In ActivePresentation.Slides
    For Each pptShape In pptSlide.Shapes
        If pptShape.Type = msoLinkedOLEObject Or pptShape.Type = msoLinkedPicture Then
            With pptShape.LinkFormat
                If InStr(1, UCase(.SourceFullName), UCase(oldString)) Then
                    .SourceFullName = Replace(.SourceFullName, oldString, newString)
                End If
