MS Word: Replace field code text with field code itself

[sbilheimer]

How do you convert a url in MS Word (2000) to flat text. Not the Ctl-Shift-F9. Here is what I mean:

Text displayed: Get the News
Associated link:

http://www.cnn.com

I want to replace "Get the News" with the actual url-

http://www.cnn.com.

I've taken my website and am trying to convert it into a book. So seeing "Get the News" will not mean anything.

I hope this is clear. I've looked EVERYWHERE. There was a macro somewhere, but it kept blowing up.

Thanks. S

Hi sbilheimer,

For VBA you should really post in the VBA Forum and as I presume you know how to do this manually you must be seeking a code solution.

This should do it for all hyperlinks in a document

[blue]For Each k In ActiveDocument.Hyperlinks
    k.TextToDisplay = k.Address & IIf(k.SubAddress = "", "", "#") & k.SubAddress
Next[/blue]

Enjoy,
Tony
