Issue regarding Relative Links.
My input is displayed as this when I map to my subfolder and double click the link I want to add as a hyperlink. "New Folder\Book1.xls" However when I save this .vsd as a webpage I get an error cannot find path. Obviously I wish to use relative rather than absolute links. When I do use absolute linkes ie " C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\New Folder\New Folder\Book1.xls there is no issue. Can some please advise why the relative link appears not to work? I am saving as XML and not SVG. Thank you in advance. |

I am saving as VML and not SVG in the publish advance options. I have manged to open the doc in a new window using the absolute path and changing the default false to true in open window section of the shape sheet. I would dearly love for this to happen with absolute paths. Thank you in advance. |

I had to do this.
Copy the relative path address it gives you. Uncheck the relative block, delete the new address, Paste the relative path back in, (do not check box) then save. See if that helps.

OK Try this (think I got it):
add ..\ in front of the default relative path. "Larry" wrote: NM this didnt work either. "Larry" wrote: "MRFoster" wrote: Issue regarding Relative Links.
