Hyperlinking Text
Any word or image in a Microsoft Outlook e-mail can hyperlink to a document or webpage just like on the internet. E-mail addresses and Web addresses automatically do this (just type the address including the www or @ sign for e-mail and hit Enter or the Space Bar), but you can link words or phrases too.
- Type the word or phrase you want for the hyperlink and highlight the text with your cursor.
- Right click (the other mouse button) on the highlighted text and choose Hyperlink.
- For document hyperlinks, simply navigate to the document and click OK. For web pages, either copy/paste the address into the address bar, or use the magnifying glass globe button to find the address and then close the browser window. The address will automatically populate the address bar. Click OK.
- To test the link, hold down control and click on the highlighted text. Your webpage or document should open.
