I have done this, I have created a [link] tag which will make things open in the same window.

Admin CP >> Custom BB Codes >> Add New BB Code

Title: Link in Same Window
Tag: link
Replacement: <a href="{option}">{param}</a>
Example: [link=http://www.bbc.co.uk]BBC[/link]
Description: This will make a link open in the same window.
Use {option}: Yes

Save, and you are done. Then just use [link=URL]Name[/link] to do links that open in the same window

didnt do anything for me? It still opens in a new window

Did you change the tags in these links from [url] to [link]? That should work if you do that.
