In Word 2010 my hyperlinks spread and wrap throughout following text. Goes from paragraph to paragraph until the next insert. What to do? Files were originally created in Front Page.



Gus and Emma were living in Iona and operating their restaurant when Loretta was born in 1911. Loretta had beautiful curly copper colored hair and fair skin. She moved with the family first to Fairmont and then to She attended Branstad Grade School and High School graduating in 1928.

[the link "Jim" spreads throughout the following text even through several paragraphs. You will get to "jim" by clicking anywhere in the text. The text type color did not change when hyperlink was set. Of course the linkage doesn't show here]

I'm not sure I understand the symptoms... Please post a screenshot or an example document that illustrates the problem.

Your description suggests you've added your additional text before the end of the hyperlink. You should at least have a space or such before inserting more text.
