To remove the underline from a hyperlink, you must use the text-decoration cascading style sheet (CSS) attribute to the hyperlink. To do this, follow these steps:

In FrontPage, click the HTML tab at the bottom of the FrontPage window.

Locate the code that looks similar to the following:


<a href="http://www.hyperlink.com">underlinedhyperlink</a>

Insert the style tag with the text decoration=none attribute after the anchor tag, so that your code looks similar to the following:
```
<a style="text-decoration: none" href="http://www.hyperlink.com">nonunderlinedhyperlink</a> 
```

On the File menu, click Save.

These steps only remove the underline from a single hyperlink. You can remove the underline from all hyperlinks in a page by adding a <STYLE> section to the page.

To remove the underline from all hyperlinks on a page, follow these steps:

Open the page you want.

Click the HTML tab.

Place the following HTML code before the <BODY> tag:
```
<STYLE>
A	{text-decoration: none;}
</STYLE> 
```

Click the Preview tab.

Your hyperlinks no longer contain underlines.
