Creating a Web site with word

[Guest]

I hope that I can get some help with this feature. In the past, I have been
able to create functional websites with Word and view them from my home PC
and the network computers at the college. I am currently trying to create a
site for my workplace and am having trouble opening the file from different
locations. When I create hyperlinks to other pages in the same site, the
computer is adding a filepath which includes my login. when others try to
access the site the links are not going anywhere. I would like to be able to
allow others in the company to access the site from our network in order to
make suggestions or comments about the design and content. Is there any way
to place a copy on the network without changing the filepath for every
hyperlink?

Hello Cassi,
Word was never intended to be used as a tool to create
web pages.
Rather, a transport medium to assuure the return of html pages back into a
Word Document.
There are many better designed and more functional software's for creating
web pages and sites.

With the above in mind:

You might "try":

TOOLS/ OPTIONS / WEB OPTIONS / FILES / uncheck, UPDATE LINKS ON SAVE.

There are numerous other options that should be changes is the web options
if your going to persist upon using Word for web page creation.
