Opening document templates via hyperlinks...
Hi.
I have some documents stored on a shared network drive with lists of hyperlinks to assorted documents. The problem I am having is that if the linked document is a document template (*.dot) then Word opens the actual template rather than making a copy of it. How can I make Word open a copy of a doc via hyperlinks? Thanks... |

Hi ?B?VGhlIE91dGxhdyBEb3p5IFdhbGVz?=,
I have some documents stored on a shared network drive with lists of hyperlinks to assorted documents. The problem I am having is that if the linked document is a document template (*.dot) then Word opens the actual template rather than making a copy of it. How can I make Word open a copy of a doc via hyperlinks? You can't. Hyperlinks do one thing: open something else. This would require a macro (use a Macrobutton field instead of a hyperlink) to force creating a new document from a template.
