Problem with Microsoft Word Hyperlinks

rdonovan1 · 02-05-2009, 11:58 AM

I was just wondering if anyone might happen to know as why Microsoft Word is changing my hyperlinks to where it is saying Hyperlink and then the mailto information instead of just displaying it as a link like it should be.

I am using Office 2003 Professional for the most part with the exception of Outlook. When it comes to Outlook I am using 2007.

If anyone might happen to have any idea as to why that is occuring and as to how I can fix it permanently, then I would greatly appreciate it if you could let me know because at the moment I am totally stumped as to what it could be.

Hi rdonovan1,

I suspect you've toggled the field code display to 'on'. You can toggle it on/off via Alt-F9.
