Hyperlink to Word document on network drive

I am setting up a webpage for internal use only. The purpose
is for easy navigation for Policies and Procedures. I am using an
Accordion widget for ease of use. The problem is I can't get the
hyperlinks to open up the Word documents on the network drive.
The hyperlinks look as follows:
<a href="file:///G|/1~CBCHS POLICIES &
PROCEDURES/Section 1~Introduction.doc">2.1.1 Hazard
Identification, Risk Assessment & Control Plan
Formset</a>
A quick mock up of what I want can be seen here:
Policies and
Procedures
Thanks in advance
UPDATE - Works in IE 7 but not Firefox!

Try removing all spaces from the filename and link to it
again.

Can't export Word docs to network drive

I can't export Word documents to a network drive. I can save the document in .pages format, but if I try to export, the software goes through the motions, but the Word document is never created. If I "Save As" and check "Save Copy as Word Document," I receive an error message "The document ... could not be exported as ....doc." At least I get an error message, which is better than thinking a document exported when it didn't. I can't find any way to report this bug to Apple.

I'm not really surprised by this behaviour.
I think that good practice is to save / export on a 'normal' device then move the document from the 'normal' device to the network.

Open document from network drive in an iView

Hello,
is there a possibility to open a document which is on a network drive in an iView?
Which steps must I do to get such an iView?
Please help me!
Regards
Philipp

If you configure KM repository of your network drive file system, you will be able to do so.
Otherwise try using the FILE protocol to launch that file, but I dont think URL iViews support that.
So what you could do is create a HTML document in KM and in a javascript tag, put a:
window.top.location.href="FILE://C://///....."
Hope this works out for you

Can You Preserve Web Hyperlinks in Word Document?

I am using Acrobat 9.3 Pro for the Mac running OS 10.5.8.
I have Microsoft Word documents with embedded hyperlinks to web pages (i.e., clicking in Word on "here" sends the reader to a web site.)
I would like to create a pdf from documents like this so that when you click on the word "here" you go to the web site.
Presently, the pdf is blue and underlined, but the link does not carry forward from Word to Acrobat. This results whether I print using the "PDF" dialog box or whether I print using the "Acrobat PDF 9.0" selection among my printers.
I know I can go back and re-create the links using the links tool, and it will work if I type in the full web address. I am simply hoping there is something I can do to avoid either of these workarounds.
Can anyone suggest anything? This would seem to be a fairly simple feature to implement, so I'm probably missing something.

Unfortunately, that option isn't available in Word on a Mac. Windows only.
I'm not sure how hard it would be to implement but I assume it's not that easy since people have been begging for it for years.
If you were using InDesign, it can be done (using the InDesign Export to PDF function) but just not in Word.

Hyperlinks in word documents in chrome on Mac not opening

Hello
We have word documents with hyperlinks throughout. We have it set to Use the server default (Open in the browser).
For our Mac users, they open fine on the first page in Mozilla but the second page and thereafter they are not clickable.
In chrome they don't open at all.
Can you please advise what to do?
Thank you.
Mel

Hi
You cannot save a file that includes a hyperlink
A document that has a hyperlink that includes non-Latin characters, a shape, or is otherwise corrupted, might prevent you from saving or editing the hyperlink. To work around the issue, delete the object that you added the hyperlink to.
For more please go through the link mentioned below..

Hyperlinking across Word documents into RoboHelp

I hope this is in the right forum ...
I author documentation in Microsoft Word and then import into RoboHelp HTML (v11 & generating in the Multiscreen HTML5 layout).
I have multiple word documents and a lot of hyperlink in those word documents.
Some documents have hyperlinks that reference locations in different documents.
At the moment, when I import Word documents, the hyperlinks that reference locations in a different document break (dont work) which causes a great deal of work for me to find and fix.
Is it possible to have a hyperlink in Document A link to a spot in Document B and have it stil work after the documents have been imported?

In short, no there isn't Kate. When a Word file is imported, the content is built into one or more .HTM files. The link in the word file at the point it is converted may not know what file name will be created, especially if the referenced section comes after the link.

Hyperlink to word documents so that they are editable?

Whenever I hyperlink to an Office document using anchor "<A>" tag, no one can edit the documents. However, if I go into the backend and open the documents using SharePoint's context menu, I get the option to edit documents. Does anyone know
how to bypass this problem? I know SharePoint uses javascript to open office documents but is there a work around with plain old HTML?
I get the below prompt when I open word document from document library's interface:
How can I open a word document using a plain old hyperlink tag that would let me edit it? Every time I open it, it is in read-only mode and there is no way for me to change it.
Thanks

Hi diffident,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to have a hyperlink to document edit mode.
You can use the script below to achieve it.
<a href=""
onclick="editDocumentWithProgID2('http://server/site/doclib/folder/Document.docx',
'SharePoint.OpenDocuments', '0',
'http://server/site', '0')">
This will open the file in edit mode
</a>
Here is a detailed article for your reference:

WORD WON'T OPEN FROM NETWORK DRIVE OR ANY LOCATION.

Windows 7 Pro
Office 2010 Standard
Computer is connected to the network drive domain.
Word is the only office program with this problem.
Whenever i Clicked on word file on network drive. Work tries to open then it just stop working. After that i tried to open it again and it tells me that will open in save mode.
Tried to reestablish connection with Network Drive, Repair Office, Re install Office.
Any suggestion would be appreciated

Hi,
This behavior may occur if the connection to the network location is lost during the time that your Word is opening the file. To work around this issue, add the
EnableShellDataCaching value to the Microsoft Windows registry.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Common\Open Find
DWORD: EnableShellDataCaching
Value: 1
If above doesn't make any difference, please have a look at the following KB article and check if the scenarios apply:

It's recommended to download and install
Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office

Hyperlinks within .pdf documents not working IMac Safari

I am working with a website that displays several .pdf documents. The documents contain hyperlinks to urls. Everything works fine in other browsers, but in Safari, these hyperlinks do not work. The cursor does not change when it enters the hyperlink space, and nothing happens if the link is clicked. I am using an IMac running OS 10.6. 8 and Safari 5.1.10. I have tried both the native (Preview) option and a plug-in. Neither makes any difference. Can anyone suggest a fix other than abandoning Safari?

I am a new user to OnLINE Adobe. My hyperlinks from Word
documents do not transfer to the PDF files. Please help!!!

i need to retrieve that word file upon button click, remember user will not enter the name of the word file, i need a command which will pick the file name from above "Contract ID" field.
i hope, i able to convey properly.
Thanks in advance

i need to retrieve that word file upon button clickWhat do you want to do exactly? Open the doc in Word, copy it to a file server, upload it to the database?
And what Forms version are you using?

Word and Excel hang "downloading" file from network drive - copy file to be able to open it

Word or Excel hang trying to open files on a network drive maybe after an untidy close.
Symptoms: pick the file from a pinned entry on recent list or even direct from File!Open... or by double clicking on the file from file explorer. Word/Excel show in the middle of the status line a comment "Downloading:filename "
a progress bar, that shows no progress, and a white cross on a red circle to close. Some minutes later may Excel/Word say could not open filename.
I have removed any temporary copies of the file prefixed with the ~. However there are no documents shown in any document recovery pane.
If I rename the original file the problem is still there.
I can only clear the problem by working on a copy of the file. It works with either a new name of if the copy is used to replace the original file.
It seems file explorer's "copy" is clearing something within the file that is causing this problem.
I have seen the same issue with both Excel and Word documents in native Office 2010 format.
Is there a better way to clear this issue?
Thanks

Office 2007 saving documents over mapped network drive takes abnormally long

On a new Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit computer, I have installed Office 2007. When I attempt to save documents to a mapped network drive on a peer network (saving to a Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit computer), I have abnormally long save times. However, when I attempt
to save documents to my computer, I have no issues. I do not have any issues when opening the files over the mapped drive.
Turning off the third-party Bullguard Internet Security antivirus and firewall makes no difference. Setting as an exception the excluded mapped drive folder makes no difference either.
I have disconnected the mapped drive and re-mapped the network drive, but this makes no difference.
I had no problem with the same software on a prior computer running the same Office 2007 version. Another computer on the network has no issues either.
Please advise how to speed up the saved documents (Word, Excel).

Would you know if there's a way to mimic Deski
document from BOXI server(CMS) to local machine, pass parameter, execute and
save in a mutiple report format then store in a local drive or network

Hi Ted,
Thanks for the reply.The file is not available in the server. Though, I checked CMS and I found an instance in history tab and the status is failed with error below.
Error Message:
A variable prevented the data provider Query 1 with BANRRD30 from being refreshed. (DMA0008).When I checked my codes, I found out that the object Im using is for web intelligence data provider. However, I cannot find any documentation and example for passing parameter values in desktop intelligence data provider. Any idea on this? You think this is not suported by Report Engine SDK?Thanks.

MSI installer closes with error 1327, Invalid drive on Win 7 Ultimate when My Documents is moved to a network drive

I have several computers with Windows 7 Ultimate installed here at the Pioneer Library System. We have ~20 workstations running XP Pro on a Active Directory domain and are planning on rolling out Windows 7 this fall. I am running Windows 7 to test our programs
(have since RC1) but I am running into an issue when installing software.
The problem I am running into is that when I try to install any program that uses the MSI installer on Windows 7 , it fails with a 1327 error at the point where it is preparing to install and says "Invalid Drive H:\".
All the users in our domain have the "Home Folder" on their active directory profile set to
H:\ (which is mapped to \\PrimaryDC\user$ in the same place). We have also moved the
C:\Users\user\Documents folder to H:\ so as to keep all documents on the server where they get backed up regularly.
If I move "Documents" back to C:\Users\user\Documents the MSI installer works fine. When I look into the registry as suggested in
this thread I found that in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders " and in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders " the key "Personal" points to "H:\".
But, H:\ is a valid connected network drive. Installing from the same account on an XP computer with
C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents moved to the H:\ drive works fine.
I have tried setting up another 7 machine and get exactly the same results on it.
Is there a workaround for this besides creating a admin account that does not have Documents mapped to the network drive
H:\ to use for installing programs?
Thanks

PLS

I do not have the option with some of these files to pass parameters to the MSI installer. For example, if I download the Acrobat Reader installer from http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3/enu/AdbeRdr930_en_US.exe and run AdbeRdr930_en_US.exe
it extracts the MSI file to C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Adobe\Reader 9.3\Setup Files and then runs it.
To reproduce this an a Windows 7 computer (does not have to be on a domain):
Prep Work:
Create a user (test1)
Create a folder on the root of C (C:\Test)
Set permissions on C:\Test to allow the test1 user to have full access to it
Share the C:\Test folder as test1 (again, set the permissions to allow the test1 user full access)
Set the "Home Folder" for the test1 user connect to Z: and point that to \\127.0.0.1\test1
Login as test1
Check that you have Z:\ mapped and that it works
Check that it works:
Install Acrobat Reader 9.3 from the link above
Note that it works
Uninstall Acrobat Reader 9.3 using "Programs and Features"
Break it:
Login as test1
Check that you have Z:\ mapped and that it works
Go to C:\Users\test1
Right click on the Documents folder and click on properties
Click on the Location tab
Click on "Browse" and select the Z drive
Allow Windows to move the files to the new location
Check that it is broken:
Check that you have access to the new Documents folder at Z:\
Install Acrobat Reader 9.3 from the link above
Note that it extracts itself to C:\Users\test1\AppData\Local\Adobe\Reader 9.3\Setup Files
and runs the MSI installer from there
Note that after the MSI installer is started it pops up an error saying Error: 1327, Invalid drive Z:\.
I also see this with various other install programs (VMWare vSphere Client, VMWare Player and Kaspersky Antivirus for example)
Is there any reason why this should not work? Is there something that I should be doing differently?
Thanks

How Do I Copy File Names & Folders From A Hard Drive To A Word Document?

Hi Gang:
This may sound silly but I am having a herd time with the following - seemingly simple task.
I have data DVD-Rs with audio files organized into folders. Each folder contains audio files related to the folder name.
I would like to copy the file names and folders from a DVD-R and paste them into a MS Word file. I am just looking to get a listing of files as they appear on the DVD-Rs in their folders.
The problem is that when I copy and paste, the order changes (seemingly randomly) and the file names are no longer under the folder names. In fact, the whole thing looks to be really random.
Anybody know how to copy file/folder names from a hard drive or DVD-R to a word document and retain the file/folder structure?
Thanks!
LAHD

There is an even easier method with no Terminal magic required. In the Finder, select all the files you want the names of, press Command-C, switch to Word and press Command-V. Poof, your done.
If you view the DVD in List VIew, you can expand the folders you want the files for, then select all the files (and their folders if you want them too) and then do the Copy/Paste thing.
