I would like to add a hyperlink to a form to point the
use to the User's Manual (word document). However,
because this database will be sent to multiple users
throughout the state, I can't anticipate where the
user (i.e., what folder/path) will save the User's
Manual. The users are not connected to a central file server or network.

My idea is that, when the user clicks on the hyperlink
for the first time, he is prompted to enter (or, better:
browse to find) the path where he saved the User's
Manual. It would also be nice to give the user some way
to change the path in the future if he decides to move
the User's Manual to a different location down the road.

Any ideas about how to do this?

Thanks.

Kurt
