THanks David, i now understand that the 2007 publisher is different and i
need to set the hyperlink to the internet address (URL) of the file , but how do i do this? Do i do this on the master publisher file? I have already manually uploaded the external linked docs to the remote public_html directory but still doesn't work as i think i need to change the internet address (URL) of the file.How do i do this?

Your response to DavidF seems to be your problem.
All those links in Tasting Tips point to locations on your computer and of course that is not accessible to me. You should go back thru your PUB file and change the Hyperlinks to their place at your ISP. John G. "brad" wrote in message ... HI John My website address is www.daltonwineltd.com and i am using 2007 Publisher. I have created many links for my tasting notes which include: word, pdf and jpeg I have transferred all these linked docs to the remote public_html folder using FTP but the links do not work on the website but they do work when i test them on the local master publisher file.

NO NO you should not (and cannot) load your files into index.htm. IN fact
index.htm is a FILE not a direrctory and it was created by PUB and generally should not be fiddled with until you learn a lot more. As I said before you should create a directory of your own (may called my_stuff) in the same directory as index.htm is in and put your files there.

Brad,
I should not have got into this discussion on this news group, we really should be at microsoft.public.publisher.webdesign which as the name suggests is the proper place for web problems. Personally I have never bothered with preview so just how to handle links I am not sure. Next. I would advise you to only upload PDF files if you expect people to read them because not everyone has MS Word to read .doc files. Next I think your site is far too wide, if there is a need to scroll to the right on a screen of 1024 pixels then many people will just turn off. I am sure DavidF could fill in the satistics. Pleas start your next question on MS.P.Publisher.webdesign John G.
