I am having the exact same problem. Yes the hyperlink function solves this
but is much more manual if the file path is long. We are having hyperlink
issues in Office & Word as well but only since switching over to MS Office
2003. Our IT department along with many others have spent hours combing the
web for a solution so if anyone here can suggest something it would be HUGELY
appreciated.

I guess if you made the links using the HYPERLINK worksheet function
Excel would not feel at liberty to mess them up for you.
