Copying links from Windows Explorer to Word - weird results

R

Richard Muller

Hi All,

I was in the processing of documenting the various components involved in
Startup.

I:\Documents and Settings\All Users.WINNT\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
had four links, which I successfully copied as a group to Word, resulting
four hyperlinks.

I tried the same thing from
I:\Documents and Settings\RLMuller\Start Menu\Programs\Startup,
which had three links. This time, I got four *objects* instead of
hyperlinks.

I can't figure out what I did differently. I tried copy with ^C and paste
with ^V. Ditto with context-menu copy and paste. Ditto with drag and drop.

The only other thing I can think of is the recently, when I typed while a
selection was in effect, the typed material did not replace the selected
text. I clicked the option "Typing replaces selection" and that problem was
solved. Thinking that change might have caused my main problem, I
unchecked the option, to no avail.

I'm running MS Office 2000 (9.0.6026-SP3) over Windows 2000 (5.00.2195-SP4).

Any ideas?
