2003 - Hyperlink from Excel to a specific page in Word

Post by MelanieB »

I tried seleccting a word in the document and copying it.
Then opening Excel, pasting special as a link.

That works beautifully in Word/Excel 2010, but not in 2003. Any ideas?

It should work in any version of Microsoft Office. But make sure that you don't do anything in Excel between copying in Word and pasting as a link in Excel. Excel clears the clipboard at the drop of a hat. So copy in Word, then switch to Excel and immediately try to paste as a link.
Best wishes,
