Default Inserting Basic Link Into Word

I have a Word (2003) document, and I'd like to insert a link to a PDF
file in the same folder, which when clicked will cause the PDF file to
simply open as if it was opened by conventional means (as opposed to
displaying the contents *in* the Word doc).

I'm using 'insert hyperlink' and am able to select the target PDF
file, and this gives me what looks like a link in my Word doc. But
when I mouse over it, it doesn't show a finger or an arrow. If I
right click and select 'open hyperlink' it doesn't do anything.

What is the right procedure (if anyone would be so kind)?
