Hyperlinks to files on network drivers
 
Hello,

I have a problems with creation of hyperlinks to files on
company network drivers.

I have a name for a link in a cell. Than I follow routine
and press hyperlink button, etc. Pressing OK and created.
It works.

After an Excel file is closed and reopened it does not
work. When I try edit hyperlink I can see something like
this: '../../../../Groups/EEDS/COMMON/QUALITY...'. In my
situation 'G:/EEDS/...' is replaced
with '../../../../Groups/EEDS/...'.

What is going on? Where did those dots and slashes come
from?

Thank you for your help.

Regards,

Fornol

Not sure if this the problem, but the following caused me some problems last
week:

The drive that you see "G:\" may not be the actual drive address. For
example, my L:\ drive is actually \\usatlc03\APPM-SYS\ on the network.

Have you tried the hyperlink function? Do you have the same problem with
that?
