The other day I was trying to replace completely one page I have in Microsoft Excel with my linked drawings from AutoCAD for another one in Openoffice (spreadsheet) and here is what happen:

When I try to link the first drawing I couldn't do it with the name I provided, but the name came very long... You know, The drawings are located inside a folder that is inside another one, inside another one, in a different hard disk (external) the name came like: Disk K/Woodgroup Drawings/final drawings/ etc. etc. and at the end the real name of the file I was trying to link... In Excel I just write the name of the file, I search for it and It linked it with the given name. Is it possible to do so with Openoffice CALC??

You can do something very similar.

o  Select the spreadsheet cell.
o  Go to Insert | Hyperlink.
o  Select Document in the left panel.
o Under Document in the right panel, press the folder icon ("Open File") next to the Path window. o Browse to the required file. (Note that, if you do it this way, you don't need to type the path.) o Select Apply. The full text now appears in the Text window under "Further settings". o Edit the contents of the Text window to show what you require in the cell itself - perhaps by just deleting the parts you don't need.

I trust this helps.
