Links in a protected Word document......
I am trying to create a form which is protected for form filling only,
however every time I protect it the web links I have taken ages to insert seem to be disabled. 1 - Is there a reason for this? & 2 - Is there any way to enable them? Thanks in anticipation |

Thanks Stefan
I am using Word 2007 and the links are fine when the docx is saved, but when I save it for compatibility with 97-2003 the links disable themselves. I have followed your excellent advice and guidelines but it still isn't working ! I am trying to run the hyperlink from a picture (button like), could this be causing the problem?

The article was written for earlier versions of Word, so it should
definitely work there... You did remember to save the macros in a file format that supports macros, I hope? Word 2007 introduced macro-free file formats (*.docx, *.dotx). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "London Imp" wrote in message news Thanks Stefan I am using Word 2007 and the links are fine when the docx is saved, but when I save it for compatibility with 97-2003 the links disable themselves.
