Hi Barry, Try going into options, then security. I use Word 2003 so I tab down to the macros security button. You might have different. I'd start there. Mind you, I'd suggest you not go this route unless its really important for you to activate links in MS Word. Why not just copy and paste them into IE's Address line. Its much safer than opening Word to unsafe macros. Peter From beautiful Helensburgh on the Firth of Clyde.

How would I do this? Also, what do I do to activate the link once the macro's have been activated? Incidentally, when I cursor to the email address, Jaws does say *hyperlink*.
