I cannot see from your file any evidence of your attempt to implement the field coding from the link I provided. Nor is it apparent what the original hyperlink paths might have been, since the first part of each seems to be missing.

Macropod: forgive me, had to find a way to display entire path (toggling the link in .doc file still truncated path). Think I found a good example. iPhone! Thank you for your patience.

HERE is what evidence I can provide in my attempt to implement file coding provided. After saving document in ".doc" format, and pressing Alt-F9, only a part of each of the hyperlink paths was revealed (I am presuming because of length). Only by toggling reveal codes OFF, then placing mouse over each link was I able to reveal full code, SOME of which took this form:
/user/charlesjohnon/foldername/filename
But not all of the hyperlinks followed this form (or showed this form in "reveal codes", some were considerably longer, and NONE of these hyperlinks contained ' C:'
Using 'Find and Replace' (given it only addresses exactly what is shown in Alt-F9 (reveal codes), the only entry that caught all of the hyperlinks was 'HYPERLINK".../' which got them all (693). So I replaced that with HYPERLINK and FILENAME\p. Because of the variation of what i am finding in the remaining portions of the codes revealed, I don't know what to do next. I am unclear how to implement your '\\images' example into my particular situation. Please advise. (Screen shot attached).

A colleague of mine, whose name is Sheila--you can see that (temporarily displayed in the file structure screen left) has been able to generate the attached display if this helps reveal the structure of the hyperlink files in this one Word for Mac document.
