Dear All,
I am running Microsoft Word 2000 version 9.0.3821.
My problems comes when converting Word Files into Adobe Acrobat
form.

PDF stands for PORTABLE Document Format.

That means you should be able to read it on ANY hard drive, not
just yours.

Uhhh... Steve...
I don't see a problem, as long as he uses relative paths, and he
distributes the other files along with the PDF.
I have done that numerous times myself. In my case I linked to
files in the same directory. When I burned the entire directory on
a cd, the links still worked.

Anyway, the question is really off-topic here. It doesn't concern
Word, it's about Acrobat.

True, but if I want to e-mail a Word document to someone else, I
quite often send it as a .pdf file, because then I don't have to
worry about whether they have the same fonts, templates, links etc.

I suppose you mean
s/but/and
