    It's possible you might be doing the test slightly different, Peo. First question, though, is are you using Excel 2002 as well as XP Pro?

    In Step 5, when you open Insert Hyperlink dialog box, you should be navigating down one directory to the test subdirectory and then clicking on the file located there. That will display "test\mytest.txt" as the file name in the Address field of the Insert Hyperlink. Then click on the OK button. Perform the remaining steps. If you're using XP Pro (SP1) and Excel 2002 (SP-1) I would think you'd get the same result as me and this other person who verified the result I got.
