My hyperlinks, which were always formatted correctly, suddenly appear as:

{HYPERLINK "http://www.xxx...."}

I do have a sinking feeling that i mistakenly deleted an entry in the
automatic replace table, which i entered from word options, formatting,
autocorrect. although the check box under autoformat still has 'replace with
hyerlink' checked.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
