  3. On the Edit menu, click Copy.

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

  5. On the Edit menu, click Paste As Hyperlink.

    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.
