Open a File in same location from Button on PDF

Ok so I hope I can explain this well enough to make it make sense.

First, I have two files, one called DOR and one called SEG.

I have a button in the DOR file that opens the SEG file. Right now, those files are in a set location on my company's I: drive.

I want to put those two files onto a flash drive, so I need to change the destination location. However, the drive changes.

Is there anyway I can simply designate the file that I want to open (SEG) is located in the same drive as the file I already have open (DOR)?

Yes, as long as the document that you want to open is in a fixed location relative to the document with the button. Try using a mouse up action of "Go to a page view", as opposed to "Open a file". Once you set up the action, you can edit it and choose how the other files opens, either in the same window or a new window.

    I tried this, but it closed out the DOR file. Trouble is that I need to have both open.

    It also made the file path as a set E: drive location, which could change based on which computer you put the flash drive into.

    As mentioned, you can set the link's properties to open the file in a new window, instead of in the existing one.

    And even though it looks like an absolute path, it's not. Move the file to the C drive and you'll see that the link changes accordingly.


    Ahhh ok I didn't change the step on where it opens. Works perfectly! Thanks for the clarification try, and for the answer george!
