= SUMMARY =

In Microsoft Word, when printing a series of documents that have been linked with the Next File button in the Format Document dialog box, a message may appear asking to locate one or more files by the filename. This typically happens if a file that has been identified as the Next File has been moved to another folder, or if the file from which the Next File was selected has been moved to another folder.

When a link is established, the link information contains not only the filename, but the path to that file. If the file is moved on the disk after the link is established, the file will not be found by the link.

After moving a file, reset the Next File button with the Document command to reestablish the path to the document.

For more information on linking files with the Document command’s Next File button, see page 52 of the “Reference to Microsoft Word” version 4.0 manual. error
