MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / May 2008Hyperlink in clipboard for Outlook Email
Is it possible to create a hyperlink and place this in the clipboard so you can paste it into an Outlook email. I know i can do something like this "<file:///E:\Profile\Desktop\dropbox\sharepoint.docx>" And then after a return it will hyperlink. But i would like the link and the text to be different. Copy (and Paste) will copy a hyperlink along with any displayed text. If your problem is really just that you want text and address to be different in the first place, use the hyperlinks dialog - you don't say what version of Word you are using but placing the insertion point in the hyperlink and pressing Ctrl+K works in all versions.

Obivously using the copy and paste from the keyboard will work but how do you create the same affect using VBA and the clipboard I'm not entirely sure what you want. This is a Word group so do you want to know how to create a hyperlink in Word VBA. If so, try this: (range_reference).Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection.Range, _ Address:="http://www.example.com", TextToDisplay:="Example text" If you want to copy a hyperlink to the clipboard, then this: (range_reference).Hyperlinks(1).Range.Copy If you want to conjure the hyperlink out of thin air and on to the clipboard without an intermediate step, I'm not sure that can be done. Or are you actually in Outlook? And if so, what version?
