    How Do I Automate Adding Hyperlinks to a Word Document?

    I must admit that I'm very green at programming and this may seem like a simple problem. I have an index of documents in MS Word 2003 which are in a numbered list. I'd like to create a macro to go to each numbered document, select the document, and insert a hyperlink that references the...
