Inherited database with absolute hyperlinks

[M Garelick]

I have received a database that has absolute hyperlinks (I think
that's what they're called). Here's an example:
d:\office\files\mc kinzie kenneth\documents\information filed
7-15-97.pdf

I can't put the files in drive d:\ -- that's my CD drive.

Is there any way to globally alter the hyperlink definitions so I can
point them to the directory where I am keeping the files?

The hyperlinks are either stored in a table or hardcoded. There's a good
chance they are in a table looking at the mc kinzie kenneth\ subfolder.
Check for a table. If they are hardcoded, you need to find the code and
change it to what you want.
