Default Absolute vs. relative hyperlinks

It seems one workstation is automatically applying a relative address even
though I'm programmatically supplying and absolute address. Any thoughts on
how I can stop this behavior?

I'm creating hyperlinks with the format: "file://" & sFile
Where sFile is a string variable holder the UNC path and file name.

It seems sometime at some point after the hyperlinks are created, they're
changing from absolute to relative. Most spread sheet I populate with
hyperlinks stay absolute but some change to relative (why?).

Is there anything I can do to assure they stay absolute?
