RE: How do you add hyperlinks in to the body of a Word document.

Hi Angela

The best way to hyperlink to any part of your word document is to create a "Bookmark" and hyperlink to it.

To create a Bookmark select your object or location you would like to Bookmark to and use Insert menu, Bookmark.... In the dialog box, name your bookmark, be sure not to use any spaces in your bookmark name. Click Add button.

Next go to the location where you woud like to add your hyperlink ie. index page.
Insert, Hyperlink..... Be sure under Link to: (on the lefthand side of your dialog box) select "Place in this document". Then from the middle area click expand button if necessary to view all bookmarks and select the one you want.

Edit the text you want as your hyperlink up the top and add a screen tip if so desired.

Hope this answers your question. Thanks you for using the BEST Training Support Forum and please feel free to recommend the forum to collegues, friends or family.

Word tip:

Using the status bar in Word

The status bar (the grey area at the bottom of the Word screen) tends to be underutilised as most people are not familiar with what it can be used for. Here are a shortcuts that can be accessed through the status bar:

Double-click the page number or section number on the status bar to open the Find and Replace feature.

Double-click REC to stop recording a macro.

Double-click TRK to turn Track Changes on or off.

Double-click EXT to turn extension mode on or off when selecting text.

Double-click OVR to turn off Overtype mode. Overtype is where you type and the text in front of your cursor gets replaced by the text you are currently typing, one character at a time. This usually gets turned on accidently when the Insert key is inadvertently pressed.

Double-click Language to change the Language format to something different.

Double-click the Spelling and Grammar Status icon to begin fixing spelling or grammatical errors.
