Distributing hyperlinked documents
 

I need to distribute an Excel document and a Word document that are
hyperlinked. The Excel doc links to bookmarks in the Word doc. Can I address
the hyperlinks so that if a recipient places both documents in any folder
they function properly? Will appreciate any help you can give.

the hyperlink would have to be(and remain as) ..\filename.ext

Thanks for the reply Bob I.
I tried it but had no luck. I'm using XP. Wouldn't open the file. In case
it's bad syntax here's the line: =HYPERLINK("..\081230 TEMP testing
outline.doc","test2")

My mistake. I just checked a CD that I did a few years back and the
hyperlink contains just the file name.
