Can anyone tell me the easiest way to rename hyperlinks. No matter how many times I try it just doesn't work for me. Maybe there is a simple program where you can paste the web address and then have the option of renaming it. I often see links changed to "Links" or "Here", etc. ~ Thanks

Are you trying to do this in this forum, another forum, a webpage, etc?Generally this is done with HTML or, like on this forum, BBCode.

Some email programs do allow you to write your email in HTML but most don't. That could be your problem right there.Anyway, for your reference, here it is in HTML:<a href="http://forums.pcworld.com"> PC World Forums</a>and that will come out as this:PC World ForumsOn this forum, you have to use BB Code, which looks like this:[code:1:0f6b73c524] [url=http://forums.pcworld.com]PC World Forums[/url] [/code:1:0f6b73c524]Hope that helps!(ETA: I know the forum makes it look like there is a space in "com" but there is not. The only space is after the "> in the HTML. There are no spaces at all in the BB Code.)

OK Thanks for the reply. I think it is a little to complicated for me. ~ Thanks again
