Word 2007 and Hyperlinks
I have a document that has web site addresses within it and only some of the
addresses have been turned into hyperlinks. I would like to know how to automaticly have these become hyperlinks. What I don't understand is why only a few of the addresses have been made hyperinks? I have been scannning many pages of addresses and I in using OCR and format everything nice and neat and when I save the file this is what I get. What should I be looking for to correct this matter. Thank you for your time and help. DB |

Word 2007 and Hyperlinks
The conversion of addresses into hyperlinks is a function of the AutoFormat
feature. There are two separate parts to the feature, "AutoFormat As You Type" which takes effect while you're typing but doesn't do anything with text that you paste or send to Word from OCR. The other one, just "AutoFormat", you can run at any time, but it doesn't run automatically. First you need to set up the AutoFormat options. Go to Office button Word Options Proofing AutoCorrect Options. Click the AutoFormat tab (not the AutoFormat As You Type tab). Clear all the options except "Internet and network paths with hyperlinks". Next you need to go to Office button Word Options Customize. Choose the All Commands category, locate the AutoFormat Now command, and add it to the Quick Access Toolbar. When you need to convert addresses to hyperlinks, just click the AutoFormat Now button. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

Hi Jay, first thank you for your help secondly am I suppose to uncheck all!
of the boxes under all of the headings such as Apply, Replace, Preserve and Always AutoFormat. Or just the block it is referenced to? Thanks again!

Also I attempted to put the autoformat on the tool bar but was unable to
locat it in the location you mentioned. I plan on looking at the help option ans see if there is anything in there regarding autoformat and see what I can come up with. Thanks again.

Word 2007 and Hyperlinks
Hi Jay I found the AutoFormat now command I needed to choose from all
commands and not what was previously selected (popular commands). "Jay Freedman" wrote: The conversion of addresses into hyperlinks is a function of the AutoFormat feature.

I don't like to say "I told you so" g but I did say "Choose the All Commands
category"... To answer your question in another post, it's a good idea to uncheck _every_ box in the AutoFormat options dialog except the one for hyperlinks, unless you're very sure that you also want one or more of the others to be applied each time you click the AutoFormat Now button. I prefer to keep it simple, and apply only one kind of autoformatting at a time. If there's another thing to apply, such as heading styles, you can change the options and click the button again.
