All that setting the style of a textrun to "link" does is to display it as a web link and when it is clicked it sends a "linkClicked" message to the field with the first parameter being the text that was clicked. It's up to you to trap the "linkClicked" message and then do something with it. An alternative method is to set the htmlText of a field to text that includes an "a href=" tag; if you do *that*, the value in "href" is returned as the parameter to linkClicked, NOT the text itself. Consider this HTML chunk: <a href="Test">This is a test</a> The phrase "This is a test" will be underlined and clickable, but when you click it: on linkClicked pText answer pText end linkClicked This would answer "Test", not "This is a test".
