i've a problem.

I have to distribute an excel file containing an hyperlink to a
external program that is supposed to be in users' PC.

HD then i can't create a universal hyperlink to open it directly from
the excel file.

this external program have its own installation folder and its .exe
icon but, i can not know in which disk is located.

from its real path???
