Turning On (or Off) Active Links in Articles

•	Select the Preferences command from the File menu.

•	Select the Articles tab.

•	From the Active URL Links box, select Visible Active Links or Invisible Active Links.

With Invisible links, the link's text uses the existing font formatting used in your article. With Visible links, the link's text changes to blue, underlined font formatting. In the latter case, links are easily recognizable, but previous font formatting may be lost.

•	To turn active links off, select No Active Links.

When active links are turned off, you cannot click on an Internet addresses in Article Windows to launch URLs.

•	Select the OK button to close the Preferences dialog box.

When active links are turned on, the link icon appears on the Status Bar.
