Problems with hyperlinks - help needed.

C

Chris Mitchell

I've done something, but I don't know what such that when I open a doc
containing hyperlinks I see

{ HYPERLINK "blahblahblah2" }

as opposed to the underlined clickable link I used to see.

I know this is probably a toggle somewhere in Tools > Options, but where?

TIA.

Chris.

Select the link, F9, does this refresh the link and the field changes to the
link?
The field could be locked, try CTRL+SHIFT+F11 and then refresh.
Hope this helps

If I select the link it rectifies itself.

You have probably got View Fieldcode option enable: what you are seeing is
the fieldcode rather than the link.

Press Alt+F9 to toggle the view from field codes (what you're seeing) to
field results. Alternatively, clear the check box for "Field codes" on the
View tab of Tools | Options.

"clear the check box for "Field codes" on the View tab of Tools | Options."

Thanks to Terry and Suzanne.
