Re: Hyperlinking to PDFs
Bob,
Word 2003, and the files are stored locally but were downloaded from a
database. Acrobat is associated with the .pdf.
Found the problem last night. For whatever reason, the downloaded files had
"[1]" inserted in the file name. This was converted to "%5b1%5d" in the
hyperlink. I removed "[1]" from the file name and redid the hyperlink; now it
opens just the way it should.
I appreciate you taking your time on this.
Regards,
Jim
