Ilooked through all the hyperlink stuff and changed to keep them from updating

Here's my question: I cannot get a link to open if I make it releative, why
not?
if I keep it absolute, it will open to the sever location. I need to take
this doucment and others in the same folder and copy it to a cd when I am
finished. Most of the links will open other word documents in the same
folder. I have tested this with a relative path so when I burn the folder to
CD they can open the links in the new location. I can't get it to work
either way when I make it relative: on the current document or when I burn
it.

ONe thing I noticed is that when it is absolute it uses the backslash "\"
and when it is relative, it uses forward slash "/" like a webpage. NOt sure
if that matters. I'm using 2003

thanks,

Don
