Help!

Our users cannot set up a hyperlink within Word2000 to Excel2000 - they are faced with the error message 'Unable to locate SERVER'. They get this message whenever they try to link to a spreadsheet in their home directory H: on a Netware 5 server using a Windowes NT Client).

When they link a word document through excel, they do not have any problems . . .

Can anybody tell me how I can resolve this problem?

Many thanks for your help in advance

PS we have installer SR-1 Office 2000 Service pack.

In addition to the above - the users can link to other word documents in their home directory without a problem . . .

Adisha, before trying anything, I suggest downloading SR-1a. The install is about as long as the Sr-1 install, but it helped resolve issues I had using Access. Perhaps YOUR hyperlink problem will be resolved by doing the same.

The problem is more deep rooted. It appears that a rights issue has come into affect. I have found an instance of a user and machine where this problem is not occurring. I have decided to completely reinstall O2K again on the machine in question.
