You don't say what you mean by "it's not working", or I might be able to
help you troubleshoot the problem. Instead, you can type in the hyperlink
manually, like this:
file://\\servername\sharename\foldername\filename.txt
If there are any spaces in the path -- for instance, if you're linking to a
file in the Program Files folder -- you'd need to enclose the entire path in
angle brackets, like this:
<path to file>
Or, you could use the Insert | Hyperlink command. If you're using Outlook
as your e-mail editor, choose the file: option in the Type dropdown box,
then type the file path after what it puts in the URL box. It's even easier
if you're using Word as your e-mail editor; in the Insert Hyperlink dialog,
just browse to the file. You might have to change drive letters, like C:\\,
to actual server/share paths, like \\servername\sharename, in the link if
you use this method.
