Thankyou very much Phil for your answer I do appreciate your time.
That was the first way I was trying it, but then I can not seem to access these "mylinkedfile" from another device or computer.
My aim is to create an excel spreasheet that has hyperlinks to my important documents and files that I can access not only at home, but anywhere. I can currently obviuosly open my files anwhere by searching in dropbox, but I thought a planning document with the files listed in it in the catergories I need it would suit my needs this time. Eg I am a teacher, I want to link these documents into my lesson plans and be abel to access it through the excel sheet at school too???
