Click in a document where you want to add an email address link (or select some text) and click the Insert Hyperlink button on the Standard toolbar.
The Insert Hyperlink dialog box appears. Click the E-mail Address option in Link to area.
In the Address field, type the desired email address. Type a subject in the Subject field, and then click OK.
When the link is clicked (while pressing Ctrl in Word), an email message window opens containing the email address and subject you typed in step 3.
INTRODUCTION
Suppose you're creating a report for your customers to read, and you want them to email you as soon as they finish it to let you know their thoughts. In that case, you can add an email link to the document, which they can click to start an email message addressed to you.
TIP
mailto:
Notice that as soon as you type the @ symbol in the Address box in step 3, mailto: is placed at the beginning of the email address. This indicates that the link is an email link, not a Web address (URL).
TIP
Other Link Options
In addition to making text or cell data into an email link, you can click any other object and create a link. For example, you could make a piece of clip art, a chart, or a comment a link.
