I am using IE 11. I am pasting URL of the part/documnet in winchill in the word document and converting it to hyperlink.

If I click on it it is adding the %23 in place of # symbol.

Actual url of part/document: https://plm.solar.cat.com/Windchill/app/#ptc1/tcomp/infoPage?oid=VR%3Awt.doc.WTDocument%3A6077670432&u8=1

After click it is going as : https://plm.solar.cat.com/Windchill/app/%23ptc1/tcomp/infoPage?oid=VR%3Awt.doc.WTDocument%3A6077670432&u8=1

Venkataravi,

The %23 is the percent-encoding for the # symbol.  Because # is a reserved character for URLs, it is being replaced with it's percent-encoding equivalent.
