Brian, for the record, when I remove links via the applications key, the text 
reverts to the document's default format.

Hello Patti,

The message I sent you earlier about using CTRL with shift and F9 is for 
changing text as a field set up in a Word document to regular text.  If you are 
pasting links that originated in Excel then you likely just want to use the 
CTRL Alt V (Paste special command) and choose to paste as unformatted text.  
However, for links set up in word using the CTRL with shift key and
F9 removes a field including a hyperlink field and leaves just the text with 
the normal style.

Take care.

Hi Mike,
I copyed some names from an excel sheet, and the names are a link, but I don't 
want them to be a link in the document.
I guess I can paste them in word pad, so it would strip the link out.
Patti

Hi there!  When you say "get a link out of a document", what are you wanting to 
do with the link?  If you simply want to activate it, there are a few ways to 
do that.  If you simply want to copy the link into an address bar, you can do 
that as well.  We just need a little more info as to what you're trying to do.

Just to acknowledge my error, I wrote "Outlook" when I meant "Word," but 
thankfully you understood that.

I'm not sure what you're actually running, but if it's Outlook 2010, and 
probably later versions of Outlook, place focus somewhere inside the link, 
press the applications key and arrow up until you find the hyperlink-related 
option you're looking for, such as copy or remove.

Re: [JAWS-Users] links in a document

2018-02-12 Thread Brian Lee
Hi Patti,

Being that the links were coming from a different program even though the
link was removed the text attributes might not have changed.  The steps I
gave in my first message were for links created in word using the hyperlink
field.  The CTRL with shift and f9 still might remove the link but the text
that is left might not match what you want.  You might want to check the
text for which you removed the links and see if the attributes changed or if
you have to change them.  If you use JAWS key F on the text that was a link
you can hear the attributes announced.  If at this point you need to change
the font, font size, color, etc. of the text you removed the hyperlink from,
and if you have nearby text you want to match, here is what to do.  Select
at least one character of the text you want matched and use CTRL with shift
and C to copy it.  Select the text that you removed the hyperlink from but
which retained the attributes applied by the origin program, and use CTRL
with shift and V to paste the formatting you copied.  

Again, if you copy the links from another program you might just want to use
paste special and choose unformatted text.  However, if the links were
created with Word fields then using CTRL with shift and f9 is a quick way to
do it.  

Take care.

Hello Patti,

While in Word move focus on to the link you want to remove.  Press CTRL with
Shift and function key 9 to remove the hyperlink field and turn the text
from the hyperlink style back to the normal style.  I am not sure if this is
what you are wanting but using CTRL with Shift and F9 leaves the text but
removes the hyperlink field from it.  

Take care.
