Create linked text in Acrobat 5.0

[tcolan]

Hello,

I am trying to add a text box that I want to link to an excel file. I am using Acrobat 5.0 to edit the PDF. I create the text box and then use the link tool to create a linked invisible box around the text box. Everything seems to work fine in Acrobat, but when I try to open the PDF up in the Acrobat Reader it seems as if the text itself is not able to be linked to the file. It is almost as if the text box is on top of the link box and I can barely click on the link.

Is there a way to just make the text itself a link?

Thanks,
Tom
