Hyperlink Texts in Word display wrong

[hayjo86]

Hey people, wonder if anyone knows how i can solve this...

 

Wen im in word and i type a web site for example http://www.google.com and press enter, it underlines the text and creates a hyperlink, which is all good.

 

However on the machine in question wen i type the web address and hit enter then i go to look at the print preview or even print out the document, it displays something like this:

 

[HYPERLINK:http//:http://www.google.com]

 

I only want it to display like...http://www.google.com

 

Any suggestions greatly appreciated

Have you got field codes enabled by accidentt?

 

Try pressing alt+F9 to see if that removes the [hyperlink...] bit

[hayjo86]

I think that is it, u know!

 

Im goin to try it on the computer and i let you know how i get on.

 

Thanks

how did you get on with it hayjo86, i had similar problems but its all gravy now.

It doesnt work...

 

It does toggle the link, so [ALT +F9], does kinda work and you can switch between the views.

but wen u print it still prints out the {HPERLINK "http://www.google.com"}

 

so is there a way to toggle it permanatly, there must be cos all the other computers dont do this, so im wondering if its been enabled somehow.

Try...

 

Tools > Options > Print Tab - Include With Document and uncheck Field Codes

 

That's the only way I can replicate your problem!!!
