Subject:linking bmps in Word From:Shawn Brown Knoernschild <sbk -at- PENTATECHINC -dot- COM> Date:Wed, 27 Jan 1999 11:52:08 -0600
Hello,
I'm emerging from lurk mode because I'm at the end of my rope. I'm updating
a training guide that includes a lot of linked screen captures. The guide
and the graphics are in the same directory and I want the source file names
for the links to be within the directory instead of referring to the entire
network path. I frequently put this guide on CD and the links stay intact if
the source file names are within the folder. Word is giving me a hard time
because, seemingly arbitrarily, the source file name sometimes includes the
entire network path and sometimes just the intra-directory path that I want.
Has anyone else had similar problems? I would appreciate any recommendations
for a solution. Thank you in advance.
