Placing a file link to a file like this (Outlook Rich Text)

\\myserver\myfolder\myfile.txt will correctly create a
hyperlink

but only if no spaces

\\my server\my folder\my file.txt

will not work.

Help! Any ideas on a workaround for this?

Hi All

Thanks to KC Lemson of Microsoft:

Place < and > before and after the string with spaces.
Works like a charm. Quotes and %20 do not work, at least
for me. So thanks to all for the help.

example

<\\myserver\my folder\my document.txt>

Outlook will hyperlink this if Rich Text or HTML is the
mail format.
