Hyperlinks in Microsoft Word 2003 show the "hidden" information when printed

Hi,

After adding hyperlinks into a Microsoft Word 2003 document and
printing it (on paper or as a PDF document),
the hyperlinks appear like this: {HYPERLINK "http://.www.xxxx...."}
page numbers look like this: {PAGE}
email links look like this: {HYPERLINK "(e-mail address removed)"}

Viewing the document as "Print Preview" shows the links like that as
well.

When the document is viewed as a MS Word document on the screen
everything appears as it shoud be: page numbers are numbers,
hyperlinks show the wanted text or image and not the link it self and
the emails appears as proper email addresses.

Any suggestion on how to get the hidden links to be hidden behing the
link - without removing the hyperlink!

Thanks!

In Tools > Options > Print, uncheck the box for Field Codes. That option is
separate from the one on the View tab of the same dialog, which is already
unchecked.
