How do I change a link title?

Stupid question. If I am linking to an article, how do I change the title of the link so I can use it in a paragraph?

i.e. If I want to link to link to this article http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/5480584 , how do I do that without including the whole URL? How do I keep the link, but write over the words?

Is this what you mean?

If so, then just type what you want it to say, highlight it and then click the "Insert Link" button. Enter the url and you're good to go.

Re: How do I change a link title?

Any idea how to do that on a Word doc or something similar? Or in an e-mail?
