Hyperlinks

I have documents on sharepoint in which I have created a document library. The Library consists of hyperlinks to these documents which are very long. As this library is created in Word, is it possible to overwrite the long hyperlink names with something shorter, but still take me to the same place?

RE: Hyperlinks

Hi Ava

Thank you for your question.

If the hyperlinks are in a Word document, then you can amend the text that the hyperlink is attached to and the hyperlink should still work.

If you right-click on one of the hyperlinks, then choose Edit Hyperlink from the menu.

In the Text to display: area at the top of the dialogue box you can delete the text and replace it with the text you want displayed. Where the hyperlink points to is shown in the Address area at the bottom of the dialogue box.

I hope this helps.
Amanda
