Link to Excel from Outlook message
Hi all,
I have a hyperlink in an Outlook 2000 email that links to a Microsoft Excel 2000 file that contains vba code. The Excel program generates the error however it's based on how the link is handled in Outlook. When I click the link through the preview window in Outlook everything works fine. The link looks like this - \\sfna-fs4\hrs\shared\ctm training\ctmtrainingsignup.xls When I open the email (i.e. view the email in it's own window) and then click the link I get the runtime error in excel. The link display look likes this - \\sfna-fs4 \hrs\shared\ctm training\ctmtrainingsignup.xls Obviously, the second link is identical to the first except Outlook has now removed the bracketts. Basically my question is how does Outlook handle these links? Why are they handled differently? How can I make sure the link is handled correctly in Outlook so that whether the user is clicking the link in the preview pane or through the opened email they get link that doesn't cause the error? Thanks in advance for your help. Jeff |
