My links have disappeared
I am using MS Word 2003. I have a number of hyperlinks and cross-references
in a document. Some of the text of the links have disappeared, but the links themselves appear to be there. I have read about a similar problem where the "Hyperlink" style was hidden text, but that isn't my problem. If I copy and paste into a new (blank) document, the text reappears. If I copy and paste the whole document, the text is still missing. What's more, my problem starts in the middle of a section e.g. on page 13 of section 3 my hyperlinks and cross-references are perfect, and on page 14 of section 3 the text has disappeared. If I right-click where the text should be, I can select "Edit Hyperlink" and I can see the text I want in the "Text to Display" box. I click "OK" but still nothing appears in the document. If I "Remove Hyperlink" my text reappears, but if I then create a hyperlink, the text disappears again. Any suggestions? |

Check the formatting of both the FollowedHyperlink and Hyperlink
character styles; make sure that none of them is formatted as hidden or in white text color. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Pennyvr" wrote in message ... I am using MS Word 2003.

My links have disappeared
I have fixed this inadvertently, while trying to reduce my file size. I think it was fixed when I opened the document using the "Open and Repair" option. Thanks for the help!

Apparently there was some corruption in the document. I'm glad to
