In MS Word, a hyperlink is a clickable link that allows you to jump to a web page, a file, an email address, or even another location in the same document. It is undeniable that adding hyperlinks in Word documents is one of the most common operations in daily work, but there are times when you may also need to change the address or update the display text of an existing hyperlink. This article will demonstrate how to programmatically edit a hyperlink in a Word document using Spire.Doc for .NET.

Install Spire.Doc for .NET

To begin with, you need to add the DLL files included in the Spire.Doc for.NET package as references in your .NET project. The DLL files can be either downloaded from this link or installed via NuGet.

A hyperlink consists of two basic parts: the hyperlink address (URL) and its display text. With Spire.Doc for .NET, you are allowed to modify both the address and display text of an existing hyperlink using Field.Code and Field.FieldText properties. The detailed steps are as follows.

  • Create a Document object.
  • Load a sample Word document using Document.LoadFromFile() method.
  • Create an object of List<Field>.
  • Traverse through all body child objects of sections in the sample document to find all hyperlinks.
  • Modify the address (URL) of a specified hyperlink using Field.Code property.
  • Modify the display text of a specified hyperlink using Field.FieldText property.
  • Save the document to another file using Document.SaveToFile() method.

            foreach (Section section in doc.Sections)
            {
                foreach (DocumentObject sec in section.Body.ChildObjects)
                {

                                Field field = para as Field;

                                if (field.Type == FieldType.FieldHyperlink)
