Hyperlinks in word "Charles Shapiro" <cshapiro2[ at ]cox.net> 6/30/2007 5:51:26 PM Hello. I have a word document I have put a table of contents into. I have inserted hyperlinks into the TOC. I then convert the word document to an Adobe PDF file. When I click on one of the hyperlinks in the TOC, it wants to open the word document instead of just going to the place in the PDF I created. It's going to the right place (in the word document), it's just not going to the right document. (word doc vs. pdf doc). Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? Appreciate an help you can give. Thanks. ...Chip..

RE: Hyperlinks in word Lene Fredborg 6/30/2007 8:38:00 PM You say: <I have inserted hyperlinks into the TOC>. This makes me ask: How did you create the TOC? If you created it manually and created the hyperlinks e.g. by using "Paste as Hyperlink", I think that this could be what causes your problem. I don't know which version of Word and Adobe Acrobat you are using but I have seen with Adobe Acrobat 6 that hyperlinks created using "Paste as Hyperlink" pointed to the Word document instead of the PDF document. You should create the TOC in Word using Insert > Reference > Index and Tables > Table of Contents tab.

Re: Hyperlinks in word "Charles Shapiro" <cshapiro2[ at ]cox.net> 6/30/2007 10:20:03 PM Thanks. I did create the hyperlinks using what you describe in the 2nd paragraph below, but I have to admit not fully understanding what the help file was telling me. Thanks for the advice and the link below. -- ...Chip.. "Lene Fredborg" <lf[ at ]REMOVETHISthedoctools.com> wrote in message news:C144C9D3-F94B-461A-A6AF-A6FBABBB6E35[ at ]microsoft.com...
