Default Keeping a hyperlink blue (or whatever color)

As Jay says, though, it affects the display only on your screen. And many
users *prefer* to have followed hyperlinks a different color. I'd go crazy
using Google if I couldn't see what pages/sites I'd already tried and
rejected.

But Jay, that's only going to affect the hyperlink as it appears in
Word, right? Since the issue goes beyond Word, I've cross-posted this
to the OE and the IE newsgroups.

I have had many problems with this issue. Links may be the same color
in Word (and I make links and followed links the same color in my
Normal template), and they may be the same color in a web page, but then
when I copy the web page text into an e-mail, some of them (the one's
that haven't yet been clicked on in the Web page) are a different color
that I don't want. Then I have to clean them up again.

Or I will have links in Word that are a uniform color, but I then send
the document to a website, and when it's posted online, some of the
links are a different color.

I have been unable to figure out the rules that govern this behavior or
how to get control of it.

Hi
I want to make it so that my hyperlinks are that bright electric

blue
at all times in all states: hover, clicked, visited, I don't care.

At
the moment I have hyperlinks in my resume that have a mauve visited
attribute and I don't want it.

I assume it means a change in my css or similar.

Anyone help please?

Thanks
Phil


In Format Styles, modify the FollowedHyperlink style.
