Stop automatic conversion of web addresses to hyperlinks
Whenever I type an open angle bracket (<) followed by a web address followed by a closed angle bracket (>) followed by a period, the address turns into a hyperlink. Is it possible to stop this behavior? I want to continue having web addresses turn into hyperlinks when they are not typed in between angle brackets, but not when they are typed between angle brackets
Regards,

If you want to keep converting web addresses to hyperlinks automatically, you can't avoid the behavior that you describe.
Press Ctrl+Z after unwanted conversions to undo them.

Try:
Code: Select all
Sub M_snb()
Options.AutoFormatAsYouTypeReplaceHyperlinks = False
End Sub

About the best you can do is click Undo after an unwanted conversion.jmt356 wrote:Whenever I type an open angle bracket (<) followed by a web address followed by a closed angle bracket (>) followed by a period, the address turns into a hyperlink.

Try doing this without the brackets and leave out the http:// or the https:// and they will not be links.
