Creating hyperlink in an e-mail

[Rhonda]

I'm trying to create a hyperlink in an e-mail using Outlook 2002. The file
is located on our company network. I want the receipients to just click on
it in the e-mail and the file will open and they can view the pictures in
this file. It's not working and I can't figure out why not. It gets
underlined and is blue, but it doesn't seem to work. Can someone help please?

and I 'm quite sure you can see the attached image..

Diba67, Thanks for responding so quickly. That worked perfectly. This is my
first attempt at sending a hyperlink and I was testing it before I sent it.
Problem solved.

Are you sending it as a URL or a UNC? How are you trying to create the
hyperlink?
