Default Find and replace

As Terry says, this indicates that they're not hyperlinks. If his method
doesn't work for you, then try this:
1. Go to Format | AutoFormat; click Options.
2. Check the box for "Internet and network paths with hyperlinks." You can
leave other settings as they are or clear them all.
3. Click OK to close the Options dialog and OK again to run the AutoFormat.
4. Proceed with the Replace operation described before.


Thanks Suzanne. The box for hyperlinks is already checked. When I
copy/paste the list of names and email addresses into Word, the
addresses do not show up in green, they look just like the rest of the
text.

I have a list of names and email addresses, for example:
Bill Smith
I want to delete the email addresses, leaving just the list of names.
Tried using * in Find (leaving Replace blank), but that deletes
everything. Must be missing something?


1. Press Alt+F9 to reveal field codes. Each email address will look like
this: { HYPERLINK " }.


Thanks Suzanne, but nothing happens when I press ALT-F9. ?
