Default Changing the Source in Links

I suppose you are talking about hyperlinks. If that is correct:
Hyperlinks are fields. Toggle field codes (Alt+F9) so that you can see the
field codes instead to the field results. Now you can use Find and Replace
(Ctrl+H) to replace the part of the path that needs to be changed. Press
Alt+F9 to toggle field codes again when finished.

Remember to update all fields afterwards (Ctrl+A to select all, F9 to update
fields).
