Editing a Hyperlink in Microsoft Word

When you type a Web address in Microsoft Word, it automatically inserts a Hyperlink to the Web page. This can be handy when you’re distributing documents electronically.

Unfortunately, Word doesn’t always get the Web address correct. Or, you may decide you want to change the displayed text.

Fortunately, there is an easy way to edit Hyperlinks in Microsoft Word:

1. Right-click the Hyperlink

2. The Edit Hyperlink dialog box appears

3. To change the Web address, make your changes in the Address box

4. To change the text that is displayed, make your changes in the box labeled Text to display

5. You can remove the Hyperlink by clicking Remove Link

6. Click OK when your changes are complete
