Hello Jess, I think this is what you need:
message URL file:///C:/FOLDERNAME where "C" and "foldername" should be customized to your situation of course. Please take into account that the folder is opened in the preferred browser of the user, not in Windows Explorer. Please let me know if it works. kind regards, Tom Date: Mon, 20 Sep 2010 15:37:53 -0500 From: "Davis, Jessica D." <jdda...@federalapd.com> To: <framers at lists.frameusers.com> Subject: Linking to folder on network Message-ID: <E70A3090E223164AB37549CFB690732B0AC49EAB at 15-mail-001.fsgn.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" I want to put a hypertext link in my FrameMaker file, so that a reader can click the path name in the PDF and it opens that folder on the network...similar to inserting a Hypertext link in a Word document. Can this be done? I've tried the 'message URL' command and it didn't work, nor did the 'open document' command.
