Re: Relative hyperlinks change to absolute when saving in Word 2003

No, that shouldn't be the case, as long as the files you're linking are in
a relative location to the document you're working in. All the files need
to be saved before you create a hyperlink (that means the document you're
editing!) to the same folder (tree). If they're not, Word certainly can't
create a relative link.

I just tested in Word 2003, and Word created a relative hyperlink with no
problem.
