Hyperlinks in Locked Forms

[LPS]

I have a client who is using Word 2000 on a Windows 2000 box. I am using
Word 2000 on an XP box. We are using the exact same template which is a Word
form with hyperlinks imbedded in it. When I lock the form and save the
template, and then run the template and click on the hyperlinks, they work.
When my client locks the form and saves it as a template, and then runs the
template and clicks on the hyperlinks, he gets a run error. Is this because
of the differnet O/S? Everything else is the same. He does exactly the same
steps as I do and I do not get an error but he does.

Help, Please?

Hi =?Utf-8?B?TFBT?=,

And what, exactly, is the error?

How are you setting things up so that the hyperlinks work (on your machine)?
Hyperlinks in a form won't work without special preparation, so I know you're
doing something - the question is, what?
