Browsing to Hyperlink location

[Guest]

I am currently working on an excel sheet that I adding hyperlinks to. In the
insert - hyperlink - edit hyperlink window, is there a way to set the default
location to look for the hyperlink location? I am looking for a way to
shorten my steps from scrolling to \\server_name\share_name\folder_name\ then
select file to the edit hyperlink window opening to the \folder_name so I can
then select file desired.

Does any one know of a way to do this?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Cheri

I'm not sure if you can change this, but you could highlight the part that never
changes and hit ctrl-c to copy it.

Then ctrl-v to paste when you need that string in that box in the dialog.

Thank you for your reply.

I have noticed that if I went through the network places and scrolled down
to the folder, it defaults there. But I don't want to use that direction,
when I have a file share drive that should be used.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
Cheri

Cheri you can try this...

Go to File -> Properties
Press the summary tab.
Put the hyperlink base address as your default address.

Lemme know if it helps
