You can insert a hyperlink to an e-mail address. For example, you might create a hyperlink that reads "Contact me" or "Send me e-mail." When the reader of your document clicks the hyperlink, an e-mail message with the correct e-mail address in the To: line is created, provided the reader has an e-mail program installed.

Note: E-mail hyperlinks work properly only if the reader of the document has an e-mail program installed and has access to an authorized e-mail system. For more information, consult the documentation for your computer or your system administrator.

To insert a hyperlink to an e-mail address:

1.Select the text to be displayed as a hyperlink.

For example, select the text "Send me e-mail." If you don't select any text, Inspiration automatically inserts the e-mail address at the insertion point in the document.

2.On the Main toolbar, click the Hyperlink button.

3.Select E-mail.

The Hyperlink Text box shows the text you selected. You can edit the text.

4.In the Mail To: box, type the e-mail address.

For example, "techsupport@inspiration.com."

5.Click OK.
