Link to office document (2000)

Hello everyone,

I have been looking though the help files/knowledge base and haven’t really found much, and I’m looking for a pointer in the right direction.

What I need to do is provide a link from Access to a Word document. (In this case it is word documents that are client resumes in our welfare to work program)

I know that I can do this through a hyperlink. My problem is how to enter the link. I am looking for a file-only version of the Edit Hyperlink dialogue…
Or is there a better way to do this?

Any help is greatly appreciated,
-Karl
