How to Paste a Link From a Web Page to Word
Copying contents from a web page to Microsoft Word can save time. At times, you may want to save a link from the address bar or within a web page so you can refer to it in your document. You can copy the text link, along with its hyperlink, so you can load the web page directly from Word. You can also copy just the link location, so only the hyperlink displays in Word.
