Hello; Ver 7, windows XP question 1: ---------------- I create a text cell, write some text, select a word, then do Insert->Hyperlink. Wizard comes up, and I browse for the file I want to to link it to. All ok. The word slightly changes color and becomes a Hyperlink. I could not find an option to make the hyperlinked word become more apparent, when in the notebook, that it is a hyperlink, I wanted to make the word maybe use a different font, or become darker or even underlined just as it would look in the html page itself. So that when reading the text later, I can more easily see which words are hyperlink and which are not. Now it is a little hard to see the differerce. I am using default style sheet. This might be different in different style sheets , I have not yet tried. I know I could change the style if I had used the HyperLink[] command directly, but I prefer to use the wizard to add the hyperlink so I do not have to type the url by hand and make mistake. question 2: ----------------- On editing existing hyperlink created as above. It says in the help the following: "To edit the name of a hyperlink, click beside the hyperlink and use the arrow keys to move the insertion point into the hyperlink's text." But when I do the above, all what happens is that a new small window comes up with some actual HTML code in it. I was expecting that the original insert->Hyperlink "wizard" to popup again so I could may be change the URL by browsing for a different file for example. Is this really how is it supposed to work? This does not seem right. Thanks --Nasser
