I'm having an issue with hyperlinks, when I set one to a monster's name but instead of sending me to said monster I'm sent to the purchase screen of what book the monster is from.
Links to monsters from the basic rules are unaffected and send me to the desired statblock page.
There is a problem with hyperlinks and redirecting because word blocks cookies (like account authentication) when linking. There is nothing DDB can do about it.

Do you own the books that the monsters are from or have them content shared with you? If no to both of those, then that is expected behavior.

I own the books that they're from!
And you are logged into the website when it opens from Word? Or is Word trying to use its own browser window and you aren't logged into that one?
I have seen some weird behavior with Word and links in the past (not related to D&D Beyond).

It opens in the correct browser and I'm logged it just sends me to the purchase sourcebook page from which the monster is from
Damnit
Yeah. Browser based notes (like Google docs) might work.
I'll give that a try :)
