Hi ?B?MmRvZ3M=?=,
These techniques must be documented somewhere. My question is; Where? I don't know of any documentation on this for Word. It's more word-of-mouth and discovery/experience. Word is complicated, in addition, because the "relative" paths are actually relative to the CURRENT directory Word is currently recognizing. So, if you would, for instance, open another document from a different folder location, all of a sudden the relative links in another document could stop working. Add to this that you can't use relative links in LINK fields. (Word uses fields to maintain all types of links) And, if you're not careful, recent versions of Word will change the links if the option to update links is activated in Tools/Options/General/Web options/Files. To refer to a folder "below" the current folder, try: ".\\folder2\\abc.jpg" Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Jun 8 2004) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |
