Paperport hyperlinks in Access

L

L. W. Peterkin

I have hyperlinks in my Access database to Paperport .max files. When I
select the hyperlink in MS Access, the Paperport PageViewer program opens,
but the document is not displayed and the PageViewer window is blank.

If I then select the Desktop view from PageViewer, it opens Paperport 10 as
it should, and it displays the correct directory that contains the document
that I selected via the hyperlink. After I locate the document in the desktop
directory, I can select the document from the PP desktop, and it opens
correctly in PageViewer.

I want to go directly from Access to Pageviewer without being required to go
to Paperport and search for the document, and then open it.

Also, if I close PageViewer (without first going to the PP desktop view),
the following error message is displayed: "Unable to insert item of this
type. Only PaperPort Image items can be inserted. Do you want to exit without
inserting?" The only accepted answer is Yes, which closes pageViewer.

Any way to directly open a paperport document from a hyperlink in Access?
