Hi,

Many thaks for your quick answers. Some observation about them:

1. The document is for 'strictly personal' use; it is a list of other
   documents etc. (so that the first document is a sort of index to
   many other ones).
2. I don't need to known that they are links; in fact each line is a
   different link, so that underlining becomes annoying instead of useful.
3. I tried to control underlining with character formatting (Ctrl+T),
   but with mixed results: sometimes it works, sometimes (I would not
   say 'most of the times') don't.

Unfortunately, it seems that no one of the suggested solutions are working; control 'Tools | Options... | OpenOffice | Appearance | Custom colours | General | Unvisited links and ... | Visited links.' refers to the whole characters affected by the link, not to the underlining.

Many thank again for your kind attention,


all best,

Paolo

Is this a text (Writer) document (not a spreadsheet)?

... with a lot of links to another document(s), done with 'Insert-Hyperlink etc. (pointing to 'Document', of course, not to 'Internet', 'Mail & News') etc.. All text linked is underlined, however, while I find it rather ugly (since there are a lot of them, as I said). Is there any way to eliminate these annoying underlining?

It's worth saying that any user of the document will need to recognise your hyperlinks, and having them in blue and underlined is standard, so will be easily understood. Hyperlinks without underlining may not be spotted.

You can remove underlining from hyperlinks in the normal way - simply by selecting the text and applying local formatting, using the formatting buttons in the Formatting toolbar or Format | Character... | Font Effects. The text colour of hyperlinks can be controlled at Tools | Options... | OpenOffice | Appearance | Custom colours | General | Unvisited links and ... | Visited links. If these options are not ticked, the colour is controlled by local formatting, as for any other text.

I trust this helps.
