hyperlink in autotext

[Dave]

I use autotext in a tabular format on a particular template. Each entry
included one row w/ 2 columns. Most, but not all of the text in the column is
bolded. However I do have hyperlinks in all autotext entries and text that is
not bold. When I created the autotext entry, everything was formatted as it
should. Hyperlinks underlined and in blue, bold was bold.

My problem is, when I insert the autotext into my doc, all of the text,
including the hyperlinks come out bold. Is there any way to prevent this or
alter once the autotext has been inserted? The hyperlinks still work, they
just look like normal bold text.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

What is the formatting of the text into which you're inserting? Bold? And did
you include any paragraph mark in the selection when creating the AutoText
entry? Did you use character styles for the various types of formatting?
