hyperlink problem in word 2010

I have a user that is using MS word 2010, running on win7.
It's been working fine until now, but when ever she typs anything and makes it a hyperlink, instead of word underling the word and making it a hyper link, it does this:
{HYPERLINK "http://www.cnn.com"} instead of the hyperlink.

I've already tried to repair the installation, but it didn't work, it's still doing the same thing, so I guess my last option if I can't figure it out, is to unisntall office and reinstall it, but I didn't want to do that just yet.

Click on the Office button Select Word options and select Advanced. Now scroll down and in the section “show document content” you need to uncheck “show field codes instead of their values”. Now click OK and you're done. The code will not show anymore

Thanks Raremind, that works as well, looks like that's where the actual setting is at.
Sorry, I was actually typing the response for the points while you must have posted the post, or I would have given you half of the pts as well.  Timing issue.

Microsoft Word is a commercial document editing program that is part of the Microsoft Office suite. It features numerous text-editing tools for creating richly formatted documents, along with tools for the use of macros in Word documents. Word's native file formats are denoted either by a .doc or .docx file extension. Plugins permitting the Windows versions of Word to read and write formats it does not natively support, such as the OpenDocument format (ODF) are available. Word can import and display images in common bitmap formats such as JPG and GIF. It can also be used to create and display simple line-art.
