Mark,

It might be possible that your Hyperlinks Character Style has been applied to more than just the desired links.

Consider trying the following:

1. Backup your existing document

2. Select all of the links within your Hyperlinks Pallet and click the delete icon.

3. With no text selected, go to your Character Style pallet and select the Hyperlinks character style. Click the delete icon. Uncheck the preserve format option and select “None” for the replacement style.

4. Ensure no text is currently selected and recreate your Hyperlinks Character Style. To begin with, I would set the color to something that stands our (e.g., magenta) Do not select “No Break” yet.

5. Select Convert URLs to Hyperlinks in the upper right hand corner. Ensure that you select the scope of the search set to Document. In addition, check the Apply Character Style box and select your newly created Hyperlinks Character Style.

6. Select Change All

7. Scan the document to see if your links have been identified and if they have the bright color you selected in step 4.

8. Ensure no text is selected, open the Hyperlinks Character Style and add the “No Break”.

This should do the trick. It will strip out all instances of your hyperlinks character style where it may have been inadvertently applied and then use the hyperlinks pallet to automate the process of styling all of the links.
