SYMPTOMS
When you create a hyperlink to another file, the file name that appears in the hyperlink text may appear to be different than the actual file name. For example, a hyperlink to a file with the following file name:
C:\My Documents\Book#One.xls may appear as follows: C:\My Documents\Book - One.xls Also, when you attempt to click the hyperlink, you may receive the following error message: Cannot Open the Specified File. CAUSE
These problems occur when the name of file to which you create the hyperlink contains a pound sign (#).
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, rename the file with a name that does not
include the pound sign, and then edit or recreate the hyperlink.
