atw: Re: Hyperlinked Index Entries in Microsoft Word?

Dear Peter (W)

First, in MS Word 2003, go Tools > Options... > Edit (Tab) and deselect
the "Use Ctrl + Click to follow hyperlink" check box.

Also, go to your index and, while viewing the page, press Alt+F9, which
reveals all codes.  (Note: the viewing "position" might shift as the
document file repaginates.)

Now I am pretty sure that you can add a /h instruction to each index
entry "XE" field code (working from memory here) but I also recall
that you shouldn't need to do this, depending on how the index was
generated using the Insert > Reference > Index and Tables... menu
option dialog.

If the hyperlinks do not already work in the current generated index
you might wish to replace that index with a new one that includes
the needed parameters.

Hope that helps.

Regards,

The Index feature in Microsoft Word is useful for large documents. Does anyone know if there is an easy way to add hyperlinks to the Index page numbers (such that they link back to the respective text in the body of the document)?

Appreciatively,
