Hi,

There is often more than one way to accomplish an objecteve.

create a hyperlink in a textbox" is a METHOD, not an OBJECTIVE.

What is the objectve?

Skip,

_{To be safe on the [red]FOURTH[/red],
Don't take a [red]FIFTH[/red] on the [red]THIRD[/red]
Or you might not come [red]FORTH[/red] on the [red]FIFTH[/red]
[red][highlight blue]FORTH[/highlight][/red][white][highlight red]WITH[/highlight][/white]}

Pretty straightforward. Create a text box, type in your choice of word or words, highlight the word or words, hit CTRL K and follow the prompts.

BUT, Skip is right, what are you trying to achieve through the hyperlinked text box. There might be better or more elegant solutions to your problem.

And why would you put a hyperlink in a textbox???? A textbox is for user input. If it is text that YOU are displaying, use a Label.
