Default Multiple Hyperlink to a single string

Hi,
Is there any way to insert multiple Hyperlink to a string based on the pattern.

For example I have string like this


US 6906196 B2

I would like to create multiple hyperlink to this number say for example drop down menu or anything which will show multiple tab from which I can select which hyperlink to go.

I would like to show US 6906196 B2 as text.

What do you want to do - highlight or hyerlink?

What is supposed to show in the dropdown? A dropdown cannot display hyperlinks.

I don't have any Idea about Dropdown menu.

I just want to Hyperlink string with multiple Links

In this case.
US 6906196 B2

There can be

1: https://www.google.co.in/patents/US6906196B2?cl=en

2: http://pdfpiw.uspto.gov/96/061/069/1.pdf

3:
http://pdfpiw.uspto.gov/.piw?docid=0...6RS=PN/6967208

from your method I can figure out how to create hyperlink from number.

Is there any way to give multiple hyperlink to a single string by any means.?

You can create as many different hyperlinks as you want from a string like 'US 6906196 B2', but you haven't explained whether you expect that one string to hyperlink to multiple addresses (which isn't possible) or what you expect from your dropdown. Simply saying "I don't have any Idea" isn't especially helpful when you haven't said clearly what it is you do want.

I want to do impossible!
I will learn about dropdown menu first and ask if it is possible through that route.
For Clarity
I am making separate doc for separate hyperlink project. Done the job.

Nothing you have posted in this thread makes much sense to me. You have not explained your requirements at all clearly. As I have said, though, a single hyperlink cannot point to multiple destinations and you cannot have hyperlinks in dropdowns. Conversely, the same string can be used to create multiple hyperlinks and any number of hyperlinks can point to the same destination.

I wanted to make it clear from my above post that I want the Impossible, Means I want to create multiple hyperlinks streaming from single string i.e. US 6906196 B2. I didn't had any Idea weather it was possible or not. From your reply it is clear that it is not possible. Sorry for trouble.

That certainly is possible, as I've already indicated. What isn't possible is having a single hyperlink point to multiple destinations. Moreover, you haven't indicated anywhere that these hyperlinks might be displayed, other than in a dropdown which, as I've also said, isn't possible.
