Copied hyperlink text uneditable

J

Jeepstone

I have a document which has several hundred hyperlinks in it. I am
updating this document and wish to amend these hyperlinks and
ultimately create a Flashpaper from the doc. Unforuntately, Flashpaper
requires text in the hyperlink to create the link and when I try to
edit the hyperlinks the text area is greyed out with <<Selection in
Document>> in it.

I do not wish to remove all of the links (there are over 500) in the
doc and reinsert them. Is there a way to alter the text on the links?
