I certainly remember hypercard back in the 1980's! That was pretty exciting ... dynamically linking between documents! Microsoft jumped in with DDE and OLE. So much now seems to be buried, but the linking aspect lives on for many people browsing web pages! All the best! Dexter Babcock www.GetDexter.com Hello Tom.

Yet there is not enough discussion about the topic. You inspired me to ask google how many locations to find the definitions for hyperlink. This query resulted in 75 results! http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&q=definition%3Ahyperlink This query resulted in 946,0000 results! http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&q=definition%3A+hyperlink Whats the difference? one was asking for definition:hyperlink and the other definition: Hyperlink See how one space character at the wrong point can make a difference? By the way, I stumble on this nice article as well on the subject. (no I didn't write it!) http://www.motive.co.nz/glossary/hyperlink.php All the best!
