When I use a graphic(jpeg or gif file) to create a
hyperlink in Word 2000, the following occurs:

1. When I move the mouse pointer over the hyperlinked
graphic in Word, the pointer changes to a "hand" figure
(normal operation.

2. When I view the html document on the web or in the web
preview in Word, the mouse pointer does not change to
a "hand" figure. It keeps the mouse pointer as an arrow.

How do I fix this?

Hi R.

If you use the built in Save as Web Page dialog
in Word the behavior you're seeing is 'normal'.

If you filter the page through the Office 2000
HTML Filter v2, from http://office.microsoft.com/downloads
the 'hand' will work on the graphics links and the
web pages will be 'leaner'.
