I believe that the hyperlink tag was originally used in the Windows Help
system, and in RTF files to indicate a local link in a document. Because the
older version of word doesn't recognise http:// tags, it tries to bind the
HYPERLINK tag to an anchor in the current document - which it can't find, so
it gives you an error instead.

Cool, huh? :)
