Dave and pa_broon74

thanks much

it seems that while the LAN address has not changed - it has something to do
with the "hyperlink base:" address on the "File / Properties"

I think I can get it to work - if I knew how to set it to the directory the
excel file is in - like:

file:///\\FL-FS4\DS$\Defense\Services\FMS Forms\LBO

all I really need is to set it to the the directory the main excel file - as
the images file are in a subdirectory under it - and it seems that

is there a guide to understand these "///" or "\\"??

and to answer the question - NO the link is not pointing to the correct
directory anymore

THANKS,

bob

If you look at the hyperlink via Insert|Hyperlink, does the hyperlink address
still point to the correct location?

Help - My hyperlinks no longer work. I have a large excel file (4 Mg) with
many hyperlinks to images that worked (opend the image). Now they don't - and
say "cannot open file". I tried to insert a new link in the old file and it
does not work. when I create a new excel file - it works.
I am on a LAN - have mapped drive - and the images are in a subdirectory
"images" right below the excel file

I'm a type A - and it is really buging me!!!
