CDRom Variable in Hyperlinked Document in Windows XP Posted May 7, 2009 Not sure I am posting this in the right place, but here we go.I have a Table of Contents in a Word document which has hyperlinks to 400 external Word documents.When burning onto a CD, because the drive letter changes they are not working.I understand by using %cdrom% at the beginning of the link theoretically this would resolve the problem.BUT my computer does not recognize %cdrom% unless I add the variable.Which means you would have to add that variable to each machine the CD was going to be run on.Because this is a client driven request, I have to find a solution.This however is way over my head.Any help is GREATLY appreciated!~ 0

Not sure I am posting this in the right place, but here we go.
I have a Table of Contents in a Word document which has hyperlinks to 400 external Word documents.
When burning onto a CD, because the drive letter changes they are not working.
I understand by using %cdrom% at the beginning of the link theoretically this would resolve the problem.
BUT my computer does not recognize %cdrom% unless I add the variable.
Which means you would have to add that variable to each machine the CD was going to be run on.
Because this is a client driven request, I have to find a solution.
This however is way over my head.
Any help is GREATLY appreciated!~
