Hyperlinks - drive nomenclature
Word 2007
Vista Enterprise Our organization is set up so that each person has a drive on the network (W, each department has a departmental drive (S, and the whole organization has a common drive (T. The drives have two sets of names: (1) the W:, S:, T: designations and (2) the network desigations (which, in paths, look something like \\Org \Dept1\[folder hierarchy]\[filename] for the S: drive). In Word, I have a macro that automatically creates hyperlinks to a certain file on the S: drive. The hyperlink field comes out something like: {HYPERLINK "S:\\Our folder\\NeededFile.doc" \l "Bookmark1"}. However, when I open the hyperlink using Ctrl-K, the Address appears in the **network designation** style. This is ordinarily no problem, except recently we had a local server corruption so mirror drives on the home office server were temporarily (= several weeks) invoked so we could access our files. (I don't know the technicalities of all this; that was basically how it was explained to me.) These mirror drives have different network names (although S: etc. still point to them.) As a result, the hyperlinks in the Word files no longer open. I.e., even though the field name shows "S:", the Ctrl-K address shows the temporarily nonexistent network name. QUESTION: Is there a way to set Word so that only the S: type name will appear in Ctrl-K's address field and not the network name? Can I change the address fields en masse? Thanks. |
