Default hyperlinks

Iwould like to know 2 things. First, is there any way to specify which
program is opened to view an image through a hyperlink? It seems to open IE
every time. could I have it open with Windows Picture and Fax Viewer
instead? Second, and more importantly, is there any way to have the
hyperlink follow a file if its moved? For example, I have a large spreadheet
that I want to add many hyperlinks to images on my computer to However, if
that file gets moved, the hyperlinks can't find it any more. It could end up
being a mess, especially if I try and copy these files to another computer.

You can not do that using the hyperlink ...

It uses the default program associated at OS level...

Excel also does not know about file movement unless the linked files are
Excel files and open...

The above is meant to be a general explanation... someone else might give
you a more precise explanation...
