Guest

I have a large word document with many hyperlinks, I would like to select and
copy all hyperlinks into a new document, how can I select and copy just the
hyperlinks?

If you have Word 2002 (I think) or 2003:

1. Press Alt+F9 to display field codes. You should see hyperlinks as {
HYPERLINK "[Target URL or bookmark]" }.

2. Press Ctrl+F to open the Find dialog.

3. Click More to display the entire dialog.

4. Check the box for "Highlight all items found."

5. In the "Find what" box, type:

^19 HYPERLINK

6. Click Find All. This will select all the hyperlinks.

7. Click on the title bar of the document to transfer the focus from the
Find dialog to the document without deselecting the hyperlinks.

8. Press Ctrl+C to copy all the selected text.

9. Paste the text into a new document. Each hyperlink will paste as a
separate paragraph.

Thanks. I was pretty sure that feature originated with Word 2002 but not
positive.
