Hi:
I tried your idea, however, I cannot manually select the text between the
boxes. The cursor just jumps to the beginning or end without highlighting.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Assuming you actually have the language for Word field codes, you could
recreate them by replacing the boxes with actual field braces. You would
manually select the text between two boxes and press Ctrl-F9 to insert a
pair of field braces. Then delete the boxes. Press F9 and see what happens.

Alt+F9 does not work for these. Other links in the document do work and I
can see/hide the { }, but where the { or } is on the non-working links
like
the one that I copied and pasted, there are little boxes.
Any ideas?

Hi Rick,

As this is a new thread, not quite sure what you're
referring to but use Alt+F9 to toggle between
fieldcodes and results display in a Word document
and check the settings in Tools=Options=View

Hi:
I copy and paste hyperlinks into a Word 2003 document. Save. When I
open
it in a day or so, hyperlink field codes show up. However, cannot get
rid of
them by clicking off anything suggested in this thread so far.

Here is a example:
The 1960's. 5 April 2005 HYPERLINK
"http://www.kyrene.k12.az.us/schools/brisas/sunda/decade/1960.htm"
http://www.kyrene.k12.az.us/schools/...ecade/1960.htm .

Unfortunately, this does not show the little boxes that appear. There is
one before the word HYPERLINK, two boxes before http, and one after htm
[not
the one with the " " around it.

Any ideas would be helpful. This is on a Citrix network using WinXP
Prof.
Thanks
