Change the Destination of a Hyperlink

As time marches on, web sites change addresses, much as people do. A hyperlink becomes outdated as soon as the file or web site it points to moves to a new location. When a file or web site moves, you must update the associated hyperlink to include the new address.

To change the destination of a hyperlink

1. In a sheet view, select the task, resource, or assignment that contains the hyperlink.
2. Click Insert Hyperlink.
3. In the Link to file or URL box, enter the new destination address.
4. If you want the hyperlink to jump to a specific location within the destination file, enter the location in the Named location in file (optional) box.
5. If you want a hyperlink to a directory to locate the linked file by using a path relative to the location where the project file that contains the hyperlink is saved, select the Use relative path for hyperlink check box.
   If you want a hyperlink to a directory to use the same address regardless of where you save the project file that contains the hyperlink, clear the Use relative path for hyperlink check box.
