In short... No. When you move the folder you will break the hyperlinks. You
could use VBA to open each file and modify the links but that will requre
some custom code. There is no easy way around it...

I am using Office 2003. I have a folder with a large number of Excel files
that all have hyperlinks to unique Word documents saved in another area of
the shared drive. I would like to move the entire folder but am afraid that
the hyperlinks won't work correctly when the folder is moved. I tested a few
of the Excel files and the hyperlinks did not work after the change in
location. Is there a way I can move the entire folder of Excel files while
keeping the active hyperlinks to the Word documents without having to change
the hyperlink address in each file after they are moved?

Here are some examples of the current hyperlinks address to the Word
documents:

../Project%20Development/DCA%20Action%20Pkgs/FY%2003/OTI/FY03%20OTI%20action%20package_vFinal.doc

../../../Project%20Development/DCA%20Action%20Pkgs/FY%2006/Georgia/FY06%20DCA%20Action%20Package_Georgia_Constanta_vF INAL.doc

Thanks for the advice.
