Email Address

[perose]

This may sound a silly question but how do I type my e mail address without it coming up with hyperlink etc ??? I just want my e mail address !

If you're in word, type it, highlight it and then remove the Underline function.

What exactly is hyperlink, and what is the difference between that and ordinary e-mails, just inquisitive?

Or you type it, place the mouse over the address, right click and select Remove Hyperlink (in Word).

Thanks to both, as simple as that !!!

Trt, it's it's underlined (sometimes in blue) it means you can click on it and send an email to it.

trt, applications like Microsoft Word have features which recognise various formats and do things to them which they think you will want. Mostly they involve things like turning the first letters of sentences into capitals, removing spaces before question marks and exclamation marks, turning double quotes into curly quotes, but they also recognise email addresses and turn them into hyperlinks. When you click one of these, your email application starts up and a new email is created for you, but if you don't want this and just want the email address to be in plain text, you can do as Edmund suggests.
