Follow hyperlink
We run Office 2002. When I set up a table of contents, I know there's a way
to configure Word so that I'll be taken directly to the chapter I click on in the table of contents. Instead, I get a box that tells me to hit "Ctrl + Click". I'm not sure where "Click" is, but at any rate I don't want to go through the extra step. Can you please help? Thanks. -- Thanks for your time! |

Follow hyperlink
CTRL + click means: press and hold the Ctrl key while you click the left
mouse button. In earlier versions of Word, just clicking the left mouse button would always follow a hyperlink. However, if you are editing text close to a hyperlink, it is rather annoying that you risk jumping to another place in the document if you simply want to type or edit something. You can, however, have to old behaviour back: Select Tools Options Edit tab and turn _off_ "Use CTRL + Click to follow hyperlink". Note that the setting applies to all hyperlinks, not only the TOC. -- Regards Lene Fredborg DocTools - Denmark www.thedoctools.com Document automation - add-ins, macros and templates for Microsoft Word "Sue" wrote: We run Office 2002.

And I always interpreted that as meaning that if you turned that off,
you couldn't follow a hyperlink. On Feb 3, 5:38*pm, Lene Fredborg wrote: CTRL + click means: press and hold the Ctrl key while you click the left mouse button.

I did, too, but Frede's suggestion worked perfectly!
