1. Control K ... or go to "Insert" and then select "hyperlink"

2. Internet Hyperlink? Or server?

You should be able to write www.blahblahblah.whatever and Word in XP will create it... or highlight the web address and then go to the pull down for insert, then hyperlink.

3. Maybe be more specific

You can't move a Word hyperlink to DU, if that's what you're trying to do.

4. Click on "Insert" at the top of the screen.

Find "Hyperlink" and insert address.

Hint: If right-click > paste doesn't work, use cntrl and "c" to copy and cntrl and "v" to paste.

Good luck.

5. Go to Control Panel

Internet Properties----->Advanced Tab---------------->Scroll about 1/4 way down page and put a check on always underline links.
That is what I did and I have never had that problem.

6. If you're jumping to a different point in the same Word document,

you need to Insert>Bookmark first. Put the bookmark at the spot you want to link to.
Then Insert>Hyperlink and select the Bookmark you just created.
