How do i get rid of all the hyperlinks?


I am guessing your copy and pasting? maybe, anyway sometimes its annoying getting a heap of hyperlinks in your Word documents, even if you going to print them and not use them digitally because there is the blue lines which is a waste of ink.

For whatever reason getting rid of hyperlinks is a common job, right-clicking each line or word (when there is a space sometimes the hyperlinks are separated and requires you to apply no-hyperlinks to each word separated by a space) is a stupid task to do individually.

To get rid of all hyperlinks in one go:


For Copy and Paste from websites or other source

• Copy text from website
• Go into Word
• Edit > Paste Special > Unformatted Text
  
  

For text already in Word document

• Select all the text that you want un-hyperlinked
• Copy it
• Delete it
• Edit > Paste Special > Unformatted Text back into Word

Non-Copy and Paste easy way

• Select all hyperlinked text
• Right-click
• Remove all hyperlinks
  

Longer "don't know why you would use this" way

• Select all hyperlinked text
• Insert > Hyperlink > [Remove Link]

Hmmmm, removing hyperlinks doesn't seem too hard when writing this post. Was it harder in Word 2000? don't know just seems to be very nicely designed in Word 2003.
