Suppressing hyperlink context menu

[Yves Dhondt]

Hello,

I'm wondering if there is a way to suppress the hyperlink context menu in
Word 2007 to get the original one back?

Let me explain by an example. Normally, when your cursor is on any word in
your document, the context menu (right click) looks like this:
Cut
Copy
Paste
-
Font...
Paragraph ...
Bullets
Numbering
-
Hyperlink...
-
Look Up...
Synonyms
Translate
-
Styles

Suppose you have a bookmark in your document and a hyperlink pointing to
that bookmark. Now when your cursor is anywhere inside the hyperlink, your
context menu looks like this:
Cut
Copy
Paste
-
Edit Hyperlink...
Select Hyperlink
Open Hyperlink
Copy Hyperlink
Remove Hyperlink
-
Font...
Paragraph ...
Bullets
Numbering


Now is it possible to suppress this second menu so that I get back the
original menu? If not, is there a way to extend the second menu so that the
"lost options" from the first menu are included?

you can still change the shortcut menus in Word 2007, but I think there
isn't anymore a way to achieve this through the UI.
