Default How do you make a hyperlink active in a protected document

I have created a form and there are 2 hyperlinks that are in the form. When
I protect the form, I can't click on the hyperlink. How can I fix it so that
the form is protected and hyperlinks are able to execute?

Okay so the links now work for me, but when I send the form to other users,
it does not work for them? How can I fix this?

If you've created the FollowLink macro in the template, but you're creating
new documents based on the template to send to others, the macro is staying
in the template and isn't available to others -- that's just the way
templates and macros work. The solution is generally to send the template
itself.

Also, if the other users have their macro security level set to High, the
macro will be disabled. You can't change their setting by anything you do in
the document/template. You need to tell them to go to Tools Macro
Security and set their level to Medium, and enable macros when the warning
message appears on opening.
