Re: [Orgmode] Adding path and file name into file links

Bastien Ah OK, so I wasn't missing anything, you can't actually search for a file using C-u C-c C-l. As files I want to link can be several layers deep in a directory structure and have names I can't remember, and as a said, the dired approach works fine. Thanks again. Graham On 19/11/2007, Ba
