Default Linking Word and Publisher files

Hi, Is it possible to have links between files saved in Word, Publisher and
Powerpoint 2003? I have been working on a twenty page document saved in each
program. As I make updates, can I have each of the files in each separate
program updated when I make one new save?

Default Linking Word and Publisher files

I have created many hyperlinks for my website below which do NOT work.
They work fine on my local publisher file and I have transferred all the
linked files to the remote site using FTP but doesn’t work.
Maybe I put them in the wrong remote folder but I have tried putting them in
both the index_files and public_html and still doesn’t work.
Is there any basic info I can read to learn exactly how to do this?
Should I put them in the imap folder?
Is there anything else I need to transfer from the local to remote to make
this work?

The query I answered and the question you are asking are unrelated. You need to
go here for a hyperlink answer to a web page question.

That doesn't work. All it does is insert the file over the content of the
Publisher file

Brad,
Do you think you could start from the beginning and simply describe your
problem and what you have done, because(I for one) am compleltely confused.
Any FTP process puts your files where YOU tell it. If the names are
diffferent then they will not be over written.
The directories where you place your files will vary between ISPs but you
should not ever load files into \index_files the best place is a directory
you create in the same directory as \inde_files is stored then it is yours
to put whatever files you like into it and reference them from your your web
page that you create in Publisher.

I do not see where you told us your WEB address or what version of Pub you
are using.

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. I understand that i cannot test
these links in preview.
