 Verified here. Good old Microsoft. The links are underlined and blue
 but not linked. Neither the html nor the rtf data contain the links.
 Normally I'd advise dropping Word and going with something more
 reasonable, but I don't suppose that's an option for you. FWIW you
 can't paste them into WordPad either.

the heart of my plight.

 Hi Jacqueline,

 I tested this.

 It is not retaining the link information, either from MS Word or from IE 8.

 This is true both with RunRev 4.0 and RunRev 2.6.1 - those are the only
 versions I have to test with.

Okay, this time I actually tried it. :) I have an extension in Firefox 
that allows me to copy either plain text or html text. I copied a 
selection as html.

In Rev: set the htmltext of fld 1 to the clipboardData[text]

That works here.

Thanks for testing, Mark. I don't have Word. I have Open Office but I'm 
not sure that would have been the same.

2010-08-16 Thread mike
Sorry I have not been following this thread closely and I am very new to
Rev... but this seems to work


on mouseUp
   -- launch URL http://google.com/;
   get text of field x   -- paste or dragdrop your URL into this field
   launch URL it   -- this launches the default browser using your URL
end mouseUp

Seems as though this would serve as the basis for what you are trying to do
or maybe I misunderstand.
