Word2000 changes relative links to absolute links
I've been managing a family genealogy website for about seven years, using
Word97 as my editor. I just upgraded to Word2000 and when I save an edited page all the relative links are changed to absolute links. What can I do to resolve this problem? |

Word2000 changes relative links to absolute links
Word is deceptive about this. The tooltip for a link is always *displayed*
as the resolved (ie absolute) reference, even if the stored value is a relative reference. If the link is entered (on the Insert/Edit Hyerlink dialog) as a relative value, the displayed absolute value will update automatically if you move the file. In other words, you needn't do anything. You can also make use of the 'Hyperlink Base' value on the File Properties dialog if you want the links to be relative to something other than the file's current location.
