linking within text field

How do you get a link within a text field to show up in a new browser window. I see how to do this with an object link, but not from a link within a text field. The text properties box has a field for the link, but no way to designate that it opens in a new browser window. Thanks.

Yeah, it looks like you're right Elliot. The only way to make the text field connect to a link in a new browser window is to highlight the whole text field altogether and then check "Open in new window" in the Properties panel. However, this will result in all of the text becoming a link instead of just a portion of it.
