OFF2000: Hyperlinks to Same Location Don't Appear Followed

• Microsoft Office 2000
• Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 For Windows
• Microsoft Word 2000
• Microsoft Excel 2000

SYMPTOMS

In a document that contains more than one hyperlink that points to the same location, when you click one of these hyperlinks, the program does not format all the hyperlinks in a style that indicates you followed the hyperlinks.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because the program formats the hyperlink as followed only when you click the hyperlink. This behavior is not consistent with the behavior in Microsoft Internet Explorer.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
