Truncated path name in hyperlinks

[Cas]

Hi there

I am using Word 2002(XP)and regularly need to insert
hyperlinks. Some of the hyperlinks have v. long path
names and Word cuts off the first part of the path and
replaces it with ..\ I have been told that there is a way
to force Word to display the full path name but have been
unable to find any information on how to do it. Can
anyone tell me why Word truncates the pathname, how it
decides what part to 'chop off' and how I can force it to
display the full pathname. Thanks v. much to anyone that
can help me.

Cheers
Cas

Edit the hyperlink and enter the full path in the Text to Display box.

Thanks. I have been doing what you suggest but I
understood there was a way that you could force Word to
display the full path without having to edit it.
