Word O7 looses links with excel 07 when files copied to network fr
I create links in word 07 with Excel 07 that update on my C drive. They work
and update when I change data in Excel. However, when I copy and paste on to our network the links do not transfer. The edit links in word still shows links to the C drive. Any ideas? Brian |

Word O7 looses links with excel 07 when files copied to network fr
Hi Brian,
Links to external files from Word documents are always absolute - they stay resolutely pointing to the original source. To see how you can implement relative links (via a macro in the case of Excel workbooks), check out the solution I've posted at: http://www.wopr.com/cgi-bin/w3t/show...?Number=670027 Note also the associated discussion there regarding Office 2007. -- Cheers macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] "Brian" Brian @discussions.microsoft.com wrote in message ...
