How do I insert a blank-space search capability in my word documen

Arctic Smile

I don't want people to have access to the exhaustive list of research
material I've done, so I want to insert a blank-space ________ search feature
in my Word document, but don't know how. So, it would look like this: Search
the value you are thinking of here __________ to see which value it is
defined under.

I am sorry, but I do not understand what you are trying to do.
More details, perhaps...

I have written out 948 values from the dictionary and condensed them until I
have 106 values, with the other 832 describing them. I want to post them on
the Internet, but I don't want people to have access to all the information
I've worked so hard on; I don't want them to be able to "clip and paste" all
my hard work to their benefit. So, I want to have posted the 106 values and
make a search feature with a blank _________ so they can put a word in they
think is a value and hit "search" and that will take them to the value I have
that one under.

For instance, under the value CHANGE I also have "transform" "transition"
and "transmutation" - so if someone entered "transform" in the ______ it
would take them to "Change". But I don't want anyone to be able to see that
I have all those words (transform, transition, transmutation) under my main
value listed (Change).

Is there a way to do that?

thanks,
julie

I am not sure you are in the right place...
This is a group about programming Microsoft Word documents, not for building
Web Pages...

Also, unless I have misunderstood what you have done, it seems to me that
you worked hard to create a dictionary of synonyms, which are easily
obtainable on the Internet for free, not to mention inside Word itself...

My list is of values - not synonyms.

And I am not building a web page. I am working in Word Program, trying to
hyperlink from one document (document #1) to another, where I have a sentence
with a search function to the original (#2) document - the sentence being
"Check here to see if your word has already been used, and under which value
it is listed ______________".

Can hardly explain things more fully. I believe it is a web programming
"function I am trying to create, as there is no function key that exists
right now within the Word program that does anything like that.

Sorry about that, but you did write:
"I want to post them on the Internet,"
which led me to believe that there was some Internet involved...
trying to hyperlink from one document (document #1) to another, where
I have a sentence with a search function to the original (#2)
document - the sentence being "Check here to see if your word has
already been used, and under which value it is listed ______________".

Yes, this can be done, but see below...

I am sorry, but you are going to have to explain what it is you are doing
again because as is, I do not understand.
You wrote:
"I have a sentence with a search function to the original"
which leaves me scratching my head... I am not sure at all what you mean by
this.
You wrote:
"Check here to see if your word has already been used"
Check were? Which word? Where would it possibly have been used?
Finally,
"I believe it is a web programming "function "
which web function are you referring to?

How is the user suppose to use this function you want to create? A toolbar
button? A MACROBUTTON field? An ActiveX control? Somehow, automatically when
typing?

But it is entirely possible that I am particularly thick-headed about this
and that it is clear to everybody else, in which case I hope some one jumps
in to help you sooner than later.
