Hyperlink Problem

From a worksheet (Excel Office 2003) on my computer I create a hyperlink to a
Word file on our server. All works fine until I save the worksheet, which
changes the hyperlink address, so it no longer functions. The changes are;
it removes the drive letter and adds %20 in front of each word in the
address. Can you help?
 
The %20 in a link is the code for a space, so that did not change anything.
I expect it remove the drive letter because it is the same as the workbook.

Perhaps you can change to using the Hyperlink Worksheet Function
instead of object links. Using the Hyperlink Worksheet Function the
links will not change nor will they adjust if you insert/delete rows/columns/cells.
 
Hi David:
I have a similar problem. When I save the file, it doesn't change the link
but it all of a sudden gives me the error message that the link does not work
and to check the address. It works before I save or before autorecover saves
it, but not after. I am on a network so I've tried to change it to the
server\share on all the links but it does the same thing. The funny thing
is, I'll click it, it'll give me the error message, if I click inside the
formula tab anywhere, without changing the address, and then click on another
cell, it'll work but when I save again, it doesn't work.

I have also downloaded the service pack 2 and this hasn't helped either.
can you help?
thanks
Jen
