Well, OO 2.4 (not sure about previous versions) does exactly this - it parses hyperlinks and translates \server\share\file to smb://server/share/file on and then back to when saving the sheet as XLS (well there is a bug still open on it, but the developer is on it as I type). But again this is way beyond what OO should be worried about - no wonder its getting bloated.

In fact comparing, "map drive" in windows to the mount.cifs on a
linux client work equally well. We run a mixed network with 5 windows clients for every linux client and all both clients are able to access files that reside on the 10.3 server, including following links from spreadsheets to the original source documents for the data. We haven't run into any problems with any file access for the past 8 years. The only change over that course of time has been the move from smbmount to mount.cifs. How do you format the hyperlinks to files, on the network, in the spreadsheets so that it will work in Win and Lin environment.?

Manne,
The links are the links native to OO or MS office. For example
take the function for X2 created in OO Calc and create a chart in OO Calc. Paste the chart into OO writer and a link is created between the OO calc file and the chart shown in OO writer. Both files exist on //nirvana/home/david/tmp/xsquared.odt with //nirvana/home/david mounted as /mnt/nirvana-david.
Interesting, what does the links look like? Im sure it has to be relative paths because Win wouldnt understand /mnt/nirvana-david? and Lin not //nirvana/home/david.......? Manne -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
