Mysterious changes in new hyperlink - backslash becomes forward slash
Hi Dodger,
What version of Word are you using and are the links pointing to a root (drive) folder?
The # sign in a URL (hyperlink) may be interpreted as a target to a specific name in the file) which could be what is changing. The
%20 is Web speak for a space, so that should generally still work.

PS -- I just noticed that hyperlinks I created in a new document still end up
with forward slashes and "%20" for spaces in the file names. Why this sudden
shift in format, I do not know.
However, I note that when a file name contains the symbol "#" the link won't
work. If I replace it with a hyphen the link works.
