INTRODUCTION
Hyperlinked text is indicated by a different color, an underline, and a ScreenTip that is visible when the mouse pointer moves over the link. By default, the ScreenTip text is the document path, URL, or email address to which the link refers. You can change a link's ScreenTip by following the steps in this task.
TIP
Text to Display
In addition to altering a ScreenTip associated with a hyperlink, you can alter the hyperlink text displayed in your Office document. For example, you can have the www.microsoft.com hyperlink appear in your document as Microsoft. To do so, alter the contents of the Text to Display field in the Edit Hyperlink or Insert Hyperlink dialog box.
