I have created a report using hyperlinks to access scanned exhibits created in pdf. format. After completition of the report, all the hyperlinks worked and I was directed to to the exhibits through their path. My next step was to create a zip file using Winzip 8.0 and email my report along with the exhibits to an associate on the same NT server. Once the recipient received the zip file he was not able to access my hyperlink from the report. This individual does haves the same Winzip program and was able to extract the file, however, he was not directed to the pdf. files when he clicked on the hyperlink in my report. Can anyone tell me what I need to fix so that the links can be viewed when I send it by email with the attached zip file. Thanks

Just guessing here.. Are the links pointing to the location of your exhibits on your local computer? If so, unless the recipient creates an identical folder, the system will not be able to find the linked file..
