Renaming hyperlinks in Office 2007

Question

In Outlook 2007, how do you rename a hyperlink in an e-mail? Specifically, I want to shorten the URL to something like "CLICK HERE".

Answer 1

Paste in the URL, then right click the URL and select Edit Hyperlink. Change the "Text to display" field to click here.

BTW, I frown on this behavior on my network. users should always see what they are about to click.

Answer 2

One more way, type whatever text you want to, select it, press Ctrl+K, paste URL, Done!
