None of the links in my TOC or INDEX work. Cannot find file is the error message.

The files are on a networked drive. Win7. FM 8. I've renamed files. Regenerated. Created a new book. Nothing works.

I do have hyphens and underscores in the file names but no other special characters.

Need help urgently.

The error message is:

Cannot find file named

  \SOL\Data\TechDocs\DRAFT\Shiva\OperatorManual\096-0461-001C-1.

             fm.

             Make sure that the file exists.

Note that the TOC and INDEX are listed in the book w/o a path while the body chapter has the entire path (above) listed in the book view.

Thanks

IIRC, FM8 had an issue with a path having more than 5 (or 6?) sub-folders. Try bringing the files up a few levels or create a mapped network drive down to the lower levels.

    Arnis. That fixed it. I used a mapped drive. Thanks a trillion for your quick reply.
