Need to insert hundreds of hyperlinks

[Rick Quatro]

Hi John,

FrameMaker 11 comes with the ExtendScript scripting environment built in. I
can probably write you script to automate the task. Please contact me
off-list if you are interested. If I can see a sample of what you are doing,
I can tell you what is involved. Thanks.

Subject: Need to insert hundreds of hyperlinks

Hi, guys...


Over the next few days, I'll be needing to insert hundreds of hyperlinks.


Right now, it is a three step process.


   Copy and paste the hyperlink.


   Highlight it, then select Special > Hypertext > Command Go To URL, paste
   hyperlink all over again.


   Highlight hyperlink again and apply defined Character format to make it
   underlined and blue.


I know there has to be a better way. Can someone help me out? BTW..I'm in
FM11, the deliverable is PDF, and I cannot install other software.


Thanks, John Posada
