Making links live in Outllok 07

[Nancy]

My links have stopped being active in my messages when I type them in. As in
they do not show an actual link but just plain text for the url. Even in HTML
emails and those I send too also don't get a live active link. I've looked
all over for this setting and can't seem to find what works. Could anyone
please tell me how to make the links active when I simply input a url into my
email message? (I do NOT want to have to do the whole "Insert URL" thing.)

Thanks!
Nancy

You need to change the format of your messages to HTML. To do this try the
following:

* On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Mail Format tab.

* In the Message format list (the first item drop down list), click the
format that you want

In Outlook, click on TOOLS > OPTIONS > Mail Format tab > Message Format -
Compose in this message format is set to what? HTML, Plain Text, or Rich Text?
If it's anything but HTML, try changing it to HTML.

Is autocorrect's hyperlink HTML enabled? tools, options, spelling tab,
autocorrect button. Look for the option to convert web addresses to
hyperlinks.

That seemed to do it Boy that option was buried deep!
Thanks Diane!

It was sent to html. Seems it was that buried option in autocorrect that I
had to find and change. Thanks for the input!

It was already set to html. It was that first link option I had to find.
Thanks so much for your input though!
