Hi Terry,

I just created a simple drop-down form field in MS Word 2003. I added item
1, item 2 and item 3. I then clicked on "Protect Form". My dropdown list now
has the 3 items (just like a webpage) but I don't see how to make each item
go to a separate webpage - once I protect the form the option for insert a
hyperlink is not there. When I unprotect the form and check the properties
for the dropdown box, there are no options for adding hyperlinks (unless I
am looking in the wrong spot). I do see options for running macros but I
can't seem to find a website (tutorial, example, word doc etc) that would
show me how to create a macro that would be called when I click "item 1" and
then go to a webpage.

Hope I explained this clearly....and thanks for the reply.

Jerry

Just use Insert, Hyperlink or even more simple, copy/paste the address
from
the address box from IE.
