Hyperlink burned to a CD doesn't work
 

I have an Excel file that has hyperlinks to other files (most Word, some
Excel) and the thing works like a champ. When I burn it to a CD, many of the
links do not work. I have not been able to see any common theme between the
links that don't work. Editing the CD link (in Excel via "Edit Hyperlink")
displays "D:\correctpath\tofiles\ontheCD.xls" and when I look at it on my
local drive it shows "D:\Documents and
Settings\MyUserDirectory\correctpath\tofiles\onthe harddrive.xls"

This is driving me nuts! Anyone have any experience with something like
this? Your help would sure be appreciated!

Thanks,

Paul

Hyperlink burned to a CD doesn't work
 

Love my users - ignore the previous post. Here's the real question:

If you have a spreadsheet on a network drive that has a hyperlink to another
file, how can you burn these 2 files to a cd and still have the hyperlinks
work? I have a system of ahundred or so files, each of which has 2 links
within it to other files, all of which are pointed to by a single spreadsheet
via hyperlinks. Every time I try to burn this to a CD, the links get trashed.

I'm using Roxio v6 as my burner, Windows XP professional, Office 2000. Not
sure what else would be helpful.

Any thoughts?
