Default Inserting Hyperlinks

Help, please... I have inserted clickable hyperlinks into
MS Word documents before but now for some reason I can't
figure out how to make the hyperlinks clickable. Can you
help me please?

I'm also trying to insert the same type of hyperlinks into
e-mail messages and I just can't. I can insert a
hyperlink but it isn't clickable. Can anyone help me?

Default Inserting Hyperlinks

Hi Jcarra

In Word, there are two settings that may be useful to you.

First, at Tools AutoCorrect Options, on the AutoFormat As You Type tab, in
the section named "Replace as you type", there's a checkbox labelled
"Internet and network and paths with hyperlinks". If this is ticked, then,
whenever you type something that Word interprets as a web address, Word will
automatically turn it into a hyperlink. Let's say that this box is ticked
and you type, say, www.microsoft.com. Word displays your text in the
document (www.microsoft.com). And the link will go to www.microsoft.com.

Second, at Insert Hyperlink you can create a hyperlink explicitly. Here
you can distinguish the text that appears in the document (eg "click here
to go to Microsoft's site") and the address to which the link will go (eg
www.microsoft.com).

Hope this helps.
