Absolute links vs relative links in main merge document

[TB]

I have a very large document with multiple authors. I want to link to each
document part and later move the main document and all the parts to another
network, however, the hyperlinks are absolute instead of relative. How can I
change the links so they are relative?

In the document properties dialog, you can change the hyperlink base for the
main document

I have tried this, but I must be thick. Does the hyperlink base have to
include the absolute path? I would prefer to include the main folder so
relative links will be associated to the folder only and not the entire path.
This way, I can move the main folder to another network. Please provide an
example of how the hyperlink base should be entered. Thank you.
