I have a "master file" which contains all of my recurring work activities. This file has many hyperlinks to other MS Office files that I use on a regular basis. This way, I open the master file in the morning, and as I need access to other files, I simply click on the hyperlink to open the other files as needed.

All files are stored on my network directory.

I used this file yesterday, and saved before shutting down.

However, this morning, I opened the master file and none of the hyperlinks are functioning to launch my other files. I have had this problem before, but it was typically limited to hyperlinks for files that I had been using prior to shut down. This time, none of my links are working. I also know that moving files will affect the hyperlinks and none of my file directories have moved.

Any ideas on what caused the hyperlinks to fail and how I can "globally" reactiviate them without having to edit each one individually? ...since I have dozens of files with hyperlinks, that would be a real time consuming task.
