You could use a LINK field, but the results would be much the same. The LINK field also requires more parameters.



As for the paths, the only one that is fixed is the one to the source file - you can move the target files around as much as you like, provided they can retain access to the source file.

Thank you for further informing me.

You are correct, the LINK option (including all its sub-settings) either provides the exact same result or an even worse one.

The paths are problematic in the following sense: all files (questioners etc.) are in the same folder, for example the "Audit Folder". The Audit Folder is on my desktop. However, moving it to another desktop, all links break down since the changed "user" path is not something that is automatically re-complied.

This is highly problematic because this issue cannot be solved by simply having the Audit Folder on C:\. The Audit Folder will exist on multiple entity subfolders, for example: Company A\ Audit Folder - Company B\ Audit Folder etcetera.

If I cannot solve this type of compliance issue, there is no point in anything.
