attaching a shortcut to folder on server

Let's say I have a folder called "Folder One" located on
my server at work. If I want to send an email out to the
rest of my colleagues with a quick link to that folder,
how would I type that link? I'm not sure how to figure
that out because "Folder One" is two words. Can anyone
help me out? Thanks.

Use the Insert function in Outlook. Select from the dropdown "as a link."

I don't have the dropdown "as a link" in my Insert
function tab. Is there any other way? How would I type the
folder destination?

For example, if the folder was "Folder One" located on the
server ABC, I would type something like this:

\\ABC\_______ <-- which brings me to the question of how I
should type that out.. If I type "\\ABC\Folder one"
outlook will only recognize this link as "\\ABC\Folder"
and not "\\ABC\Folder One".

If you could help with this I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

What version of Outlook are you using and are you using Word as the editor?
