I was able to get them to appear once along with the word Hyperlink. But when
I tried doing it again to show her it didn't work. She just decided go to
each occurrence (over 100 of them) and press the space bar afterward. It was
a one time thing so she thought it easier to do that than waste a lot of time
trying to get the other way to work.

If you execute the merge to a new document and then use Alt+F9 to toggle on
the display of field codes, do the hyperlink fields then appear?

I am trying to help someone who has over 200 records of information in
Excel
2007 which includes date fields and hyperlink fields and is merging to
a
directory in Word 2007. I was able to get the date formatting to merge
correctly using the confirm file conversion on open, but the hyperlinks
do
not appear as a hyperlink after the merge. I tried using the
information in
http://support.microsoft.com/default/aspx/kb/912679 but it didn't work
correctly.
I also tried importing the Excel data into Access and change the field
to
hyperlink field type, but that didn't merge with a hyperlink field
either.
Any suggestions?
