I'm trying to write a link in the Word-file, that I'm creating with MSWordStyler-transformers and the Microsoft Word writer.

I'm using markdown, but it isn't written af a link - just as plain text.

I'm writing this in the Text-field in the MSWordStyler with Content Type set to Paragraph:

[Klik her:](http://www.ph.rm.dk/Omraader/sundhedsberedskab/arrangementer-begivenheder-og-events/)

Hi @ikast_mofri,

Have you tried using this syntax when creating your hyperlink in markdown?: 
[Hyperlinking text](https) 
To insert links, enclose the text in [square brackets](followed by the URL) - the descriptive text will show the hyperlink highlighting.

I think that article might also be helpful to refer to: Format Help in FME Hub with Markdown

Hi,

 

Yes, that's how I'm doing it - but it isn't shown as a hyperlink.

Hi,

 

Yes, that's how I'm doing it - but it isn't shown as a hyperlink.

 

@ikast_mofri, my apologies, it appears that this function isn't yet available for the MSWordStyler, as the MS Word Writer is still quite new for us (2018!). I have created an Idea for you to add the ability to create hyperlinks, and also put in an enhancement request (FMEENGINE-56440). If you could upvote the idea, that will raise its visibility for our developers, and you will be alerted when its status changes. Thanks!
