I use a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop, running Windows Vista. I have Microsoft
Office Basic Edition 2003 installed of which Word 2003 (11.8307.8221) SP3 is
a part.

Until now, I have never had a problem opening hyperlinks (Ctrl + click).
Now I get a Microsoft Office Word window which says "This operation has been
cvancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact
your system administrator."
I am the administrator; I have checked Word is set as the HTML editor and
also that Word is listed as the HTML editor in Internet Programs.
I don't know what else to do!
 
Thanks Suzanne. I followed your link to slapstick.com and followed the
instructions to reset the web settings in Vista and hyperlinks are now
working.
Thanks for your prompt reply
Jan
 
I'm glad that was helpful. FWIW, note that it's "slipstick" (i.e., a slide
rule) not "slapstick" (broad humor). <g>
