Copy Paste Text with a hyperlink

[Philip L Jackson]

Hi

I have a customer with many 1000's of product descriptions in plain text
documents.

I have a small application whch can take these and copy/paste the text into
separate word documents. However the text includes various web addresses and
I wish to paste these into word as hyperlinks but cannot work out how to do
this.

Any advice greatfully appreciated.

Regards
PLJ

After copying and pasting, you can use AutoFormat (Format > Autoformat) to
do this. Just make sure the "Replace paths with hyperlinks" option is
checked and Word will find everything that looks like a web address and make
it a hyperlink.

Minimal VBA code for this is:

Options.AutoFormatReplaceHyperlinks = True
ActiveDocument.Range.AutoFormat
