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. -- FredN |

Distributing hyperlinked documents
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") -- FredN "Bob I" wrote: the hyperlink would have to be(and remain as) ..\filename.ext FredN wrote: I need to distribute an Excel document and a Word document that are hyperlinked.

My mistake. I just checked a CD that I did a few years back and the
hyperlink contains just the file name. FredN wrote: 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") |
