Protected Forms with Links

[Jim]

I have created protected forms with hyperlinks (macro
facilitated). Everything works fine... on my computer.
If I copy these forms to a shared drive (even with the
links in the same folder) they don't work. I want to be
able to email these forms and have the links work... what
do I do?

Hi Jim,

I'd say, start by trying to create the Hyperlink fields with
the files you want to link to already in the final file
location (shared driver).
