classic example of why internal website links should be relative not
absolute.
you may try search and replace on the original Pub file, that may work but
its bound to be tedious anyway.

Hyperlinks in Publisher, batch changing old hyperlinks and converting
absolute hyperlinks to relative hyperlinks.

A document was written in Publisher (.html the report will be viewed
through
a browser) with many absolute hyperlinks. It was transferred onto the
network at base from a HDD, but will ultimately be supplied on a CD where
it
will almost certainly be transferred to another network for use.

All the old hyperlinks are related to the isolated system and know no
longer
work; they were supposed to be relative but created by mistake as
absolute.

First is there an easy way to batch convert old absolute hyperlinks to
relative hyperlinks and then preserve this new links regardless of where
or
how it is passed around?

All the hyperlinks are to documents within the reports own folders and
sub-
directory folder system. It a basic sub-folder system, may be 3 levels at
most.

Any ideas?
