WHen I create a hyperlink to a file (which contains a few pics and a pdf) and
then go back and test the hyperlink several aspects are changed. See below:

Here is what the hyperlink looks like when entered:
AL\Birmingham\4700 Pinson Valley Parkway

Here is the path when I click "ok":
\\Ntserver\public\BIG Industrial\Available Properties
Link\AL/Birmingham/4700 Pinson Valley Parkway

(Notice ABove that it changes the slashes to forward slash after "AL"
