>Is there a setting in Word that will allow me to disable the hyperlinks?

Hi Michel,

Three things that work with hyperlinks:

Tools/AutoCorrect/AutoFormat As You Type/Internet and network paths with hyperlink

Tools/AutoCorrect/AutoFormat/Internet and network paths with hyperlink

To remove the single hyperlink - Right click/Hyperlink/Remove Hyperlink

I did not find anything that can remove multiple hyperlinks from the block of text, however if I don't care of preserving the text formatting I just cut and paste this block to Notepad, then cut and paste it back to Word - the text loses all formatting.
