Inserting a LINK field-what's the /f switch?
When I insert a LINK field, there is a switch ("/f") which,
accompanied by a number param, sets some kind of formatting. But I can find absolutely NO DISCUSSION of what the values for that param should be, and what effect it has in the "master" document. Could someone please direct me to a discussion of that parameter? Thanks!

Word help on Link Field explains the switches and the numbers.

Yes and no. The parameters for the "/f" switch are not
explained. All that's said is "formats according to the parameter". That's a worthless explanantion.
