If I am copying and pasting a couple of paragraphs from a web page and there are clickable links in the page, they will be clickable in the Word docx.

But if I just copy from the address bar and paste it into the Word 07 docx, they will not be clickable, even if I hit space or enter after the link. The link just shows up as black text.

I believe this started happening when I upgraded from Windows 8 to 8.1. Is there anything I can do to get them back?

The only setting I could find in Word was "Use CTRL+click to follow hyperlink" and that is checked. Is there another setting somewhere that I missed, and somehow it got changed?

Edit: I found another one. "Update automatic links at open" and it is also checked.

sincerely,
