corresponding to its title. Those Word files are located in a folder
on my desktop called Worship Songs.

One day when I went to click one of the titles, it gave me a message:
cannot open the specified file. I then thought about the hyperlink
path being screwed up and sure enough it had somehow changed. It
changed to something like:

file:///c:\users\brett\appdata\roaming\microsoft\excel\Wor ship%20Songs\All%20I%20Need%20Is%20You.doc

It no longer had the desktop in the pathway. Can someone help me with
a step by step fix to this that I could maybe fix the links all at
once? There are way too many to fix manually. Your help would be most
desired. Thank you!


Why don't you just store the songs in the Excel workbook so your
hyperlinks can just point to the sheet (or range) where the songs are
located?

How do you store them in the workbook? Is this a quick change that it could switch each song title so that it opens up its respective Word file? I've heard of people getting hyperlinks fixed in mass, just not sure how to do it for mine.
