Preserving embedded links when moving a file
Using Word 2003 on Windows XP
I have a Word document that contains embedded links to other Word documents and PDFs. All of the files are in the same folder. If I burn this folder to a CD, or FTP it to a colleague, will the links be preserved? Or must I do something beforehand? Thanks, pjs |

Preserving embedded links when moving a file
Hi pjs,
You'll need to change the way the links work, so that they'll apply 'relative' Paths, instead of the usual 'absolute' paths. To see how to do this, check out the solution I've posted at: http://lounge.windowssecrets.com/ind...owtopic=670027 -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "pjs" wrote in message ...
