Default Internal URLs

Hi,

I have a cell, that contains a reference to a document - i.e
C:\documents\test.doc - is there anyway that I can automatically convert
either by way of text recognition (ie the program recognises that is an
internal URL) or by way of cell reference (ie that whatever is in that cell
is an internal URL), so that when I type C:\ etc - it automatically creates
an internal hyperlink.

My email address is - myname at cdtoday.co.uk
--

thanks

Antony

If you type file:\\C:\Temp\Book1.xls then a hyperlink will automatically be
created.
