How do I get a page number to appear as A-1 and a hyperlink?
In every version of Word, page numbers in TOCs are hyperlinked. In Word
2000, the entries are also hyperlinked by default, and there is no way, through the UI, to deselect this option (you have to edit the TOC field code). In Word 2002 and above, this is still the default, but there's a box in the Table of Contents dialog that you can clear. That said, what determines whether just the page number or the entire entry is hyperlinked is the \h switch in the TOC field code. It sounds as if your TOC doesn't have this switch. Press Alt+F9 to display the field code, add the \h switch, Alt+F9 to toggle back, and F9 to update the TOC. Note that hyperlinked entries will show up as having the Hyperlink character style applied, but it is suppressed, so TOC entries don't look blue and underlined except in Web Layout view. If you unlink the TOC, however, the Hyperlink formatting will resurface, perversely since the entries are no longer hyperlinked. In Word 2002 (I think) and above, you will have to press Ctrl when clicking on an entry in order to follow the link (unless you have changed this setting in Tools | Options | Edit). -- Suzanne S.
