Create a hyperlink by pasting one from a Microsoft Office document

Create a hyperlink by pasting one from a Microsoft Office document

  1. Open a Microsoft Office document that contains a defined hyperlink.

  2. Right-click the defined hyperlink that you want to copy. Point to Hyperlink on the shortcut menu, and then click Copy Hyperlink.

    Note   When you copy a defined hyperlink in an Office document, make sure to copy just the hyperlink itself. If you copy characters that surround the hyperlink but aren't part of the hyperlink, Microsoft Access will link to the text that you selected instead of to the hyperlink address.

  3. Switch to Microsoft Access and open a form in Design view or a report in Design view.

  4. Click Paste As Hyperlink on the Edit menu.

    Microsoft Access adds a label to the form or report. To test the link, right-click the label, point to Hyperlink on the shortcut menu, and then click Open.
