WORD 2007: Cannot link to an XLSX file. (Excel Spreadheet)
Hi
I am trying to insert a hyperlink in a WORD 2007 document to an EXCEL 2007 file. But when I go to INSERT -> HYPERLINK, all I see in my current folder are WORD DOCS and tempfiles. Funny thing : I previously inserted a link to another spreadsheet in the same document so I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
The only thing I can think of you might try - if you're following the right steps - is to hit the little folder open icon and browse for files and ensure the filter is set for ALL FILES.

Csoussan - no offense taken of course! :) Yes, I'm in the right folder.
Dave-Where is the folder open icon? This is in the window used to select a file for a hyperlink; rather than the window used to open a file.
Thanks.

Yes, it is in the window used to select a file for a hyperlink.
See the little folder open icon toward the top-mid right.
I need to reboot but will show the image when I'm back up.
Actually, it looks like csoussan uploaded a pic to show where to open the folder/browse. Just ensure ALL Files, or Office Files are selected.

Csoussan - Apologies!! You were right after all. I was in the wrong folder. I have my docs below "my documents" and my spreadsheets below "my spreadsheets" and simply forgot to navigate to the other folder.
Dave- I found the icon you mentioned but it actually took me two tries for it to display the files I needed to see.
I will award points on Monday - about to start a long weekend. Thanks for everyone's help!
