Hyperlinks in a protected document
Since the article you cited does walk you through the process, is there a
specific area you are having problems with? Is there something in the article you don't understand? If so, what is it? What isn't working exactly?

I add the macro as listed, but am i supposed to enter something in between
the paranthesis and should I replace the (1)? When I run the macro it is giving me an error message at this part.

No, you leave the 1 as it stands. The macro should read
Sub FollowLink() Selection.Hyperlinks(1).Follow End Sub Insert your macrobutton field to run that macro, using the inserted hyperlink as the prompt. Run the macro by clicking the macrobutton field. If you run it any other way it will give you a Runtime Error 5941 error message, because the macro alone is not associated with a hyperlink. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Aggie G wrote: I add the macro as listed, but am i supposed to enter something in between the paranthesis and should I replace the (1)?

Hyperlinks in a protected document
I had a look at your document, which seems to contain some minor corruption.
I added the macro Sub FollowLink() Selection.Hyperlinks(1).Follow End Sub to the template (presumably you have it in normal.dot - where other users won't see it) saved it as a template into the templates folder of my PC and the function worked correctly when I changed the hyperlinked document to one I actually had present. In my case { MacroButton FollowLink { HYPERLINK "D:/My%20Documents/Test/Dates%20data.xls" } } I was also a bit suspicious of the path in your hyperlink { MacroButton FollowLink { HYPERLINK " \S:\Project Review Committee\Action Steps Form Template.xlt" } } which not only has a space in the path after the first quote, but has a single backslash before the network drive letter? I can't see that working? It helps if you create the hyperlink in another document, using the Insert Hyperlink tools. Test that it works, then copy and paste it into the macrobutton field. Lock the template and save it. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Aggie G wrote: I am still having trouble. I have attached the document.
