Which ver & build # of DW?
Which operating system?
Does this problem occur in all pages? If you create a new, blank HTML page can you insert a link normally?
Does this problem occur in all Sites?
Do you use any 3rd party Extensions in DW? Have you tried disabling them?

Dreamweaver CC - latest. Win 8.1 - did the same with 8 and 7. All

pages and sites old or new. Do use some extensions but it did the same

before they were installed. Most of the time you enter a link and click

on something else like target or click enter and the link you just

entered goes away. I can go to the source code immediaely after

entering a link in design view and it's not there. I can also go to the

source code and click on anything then return to the design page and

insert a link normally - very strange. This is so annoying I usually

just go to the source code and enter the links there but I shouldn't

have to do that.

@ billkilborn : Just noticed that you need to select / highlight that part of the text which you want to make a link .

Highlight the part of text which ou want to be a link
Go to the Properties Inspector(Window>Properties)
Add the link / target
See them added in Code

Hope this helps
