KWord has the ability to insert Internet addresses, email addresses and file locations with a descriptor. This is most often used to create web pages in KWord.
Once inserted into the document, the descriptor will be visible in KWord, but when saved as a web document, the descriptor will become the hyperlink for the location specified with the address.
