Hyperlink in my word documents, I cannot remove
November 19, 2007
I have a question in reference to my hyperlink formatting in previously saved "Word" documents and any new PDF attachments. I am using Windows XP on my Dell 4600 series, Pentium-4, home computer for homework.
All my saved "word" documents show:
{ HYPERLINK http://www.jobsinri.com/seek/coresults2.aspx?co_num=9560}
instead of correctly showing : BUILDERS SURPLUS
I know you can point the cursor on the unformatted bracket hyperlink and then right-click to select "Remove Hyperlink"- which then returns it to the proper BUILDERS SURPLUS link. My question becomes is there a way to restore each document, the entire page(s) in one shot as opposed to selecting each hyperlink on every paragraph in one document manually? by repeating the manual process above?
Somehow I managed to change the formatting on all my saved "Word" documents and PDF attachments in emails to Hyperlink bracket instead of the actual URL link in example above: BUILDERS SURPLUS . I have gone to Tools->"Autocorrect Options" then selecting "Auto format" & "Auto format as you type" and putting a checkmark in the "Internet and Network paths with hyperlinks" but that only solves my problem for new "Word" documents not previously "saved" ones on my computer.
I appreciate any help and assistance in this tangled web that I have woven myself into.
Sincerely,
John

Alt+F9 toggles between field view and hyperlink text view. That will do all the hypetlinks (fields) in the document in one go.(above is for Word 2002, but as far as I know it is also for other versions)

Dim i As Integer
Dim x As Integer
If ActiveDocument.Hyperlinks.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "There are no hyperlinks in the current document"
Exit Sub
End If
If MsgBox("Delete " & ActiveDocument.Hyperlinks.Count & " hyperlinks?" & vbCrLf & _
"(This will only remove the hyperlink, not the text)", vbYesNo + vbQuestion) = vbYes Then
For i = ActiveDocument.Hyperlinks.Count To 1 Step -1
ActiveDocument.Hyperlinks(i).Delete
x = x + 1
Next i
MsgBox " All " & x & " hyperlinks have been deleted", vbInformation
End If
End Sub
