Hi Eduardo,

The backslash in the marker window (sometimes) escapes the character following 
it. You need to use forward slashes instead.

Subject: Linking Problem

Good afternoon

I?ve been experiencing a tonload of trouble linking to documents in a server 
where the 
address contains backslashes ?\? and NOT forward slashes ?/?

Problem:  whenever I write the syntax to go to the hypertext link?...FrameMaker 
does funny 
things to the link itself?.

Example:

message URL \\jetblue.com\Docs\Manuals\jbdocs\Flight Operations Training Manual 
(FOTM).pdf
becomes the following when I click ?Edit Hypertext Marker??..
message URL \\jetblue.com?ocs\smanuals\jbdocs?light Operations Training Manual 
(FOTM).pdf

I think the use of the backslash is causing this?.or??is it a bug???

So I?m trying to use any tool native to FrameMaker to keep the link intact.

This has been bothering me for a long time and it?s one of the laundry list 
items I?ve been 
trying to cure.

Any assistance would be most appreciated?.
