Hello Kevs,
If you don't have enough of them that you want to use the macro, try these
-- from page 60 of "Bend Word to Your Will", a free download from the Word
MVPs' website (
http://word.mvps.org/Mac/Bend/BendWordToYourWill.html).
To turn off active formatting of a hyperlink, select the hyperlink by
clicking outside it and dragging inwards or by putting the insertion point
after the hyperlink, holding down the shift key and pressing the left-arrow
to select it. Then key Command-k » click the ³Remove link² button at bottom
left. Before Word 2004, you can Control-click the hyperlink (right-click on
a two-button mouse), which presents you with an Edit Hyperlink option. In
Word 2004 I key Command-Shift-F9.
You can search for the next hyperlink by holding down the circular button on
the document¹s vertical scroll bar, rolling to the ³{a}² area (fields) in
the box that appears, letting the mouse button go, then clicking on either
of the grey double arrows above and below the circular button. Keying
Command-y will repeat the action of removing the link.
If you want to stop Word automatically hyperlinking every web address you
type, choose Tools menu » AutoCorrect » ³AutoFormat as you type². In the
³Replace as you type² section, de-select ³Internet paths with hyperlinks².
You can always reinstate this setting if you need to hyperlink web addresses
in future.
Cheers,
Clive Huggan
