Description pagalmes.lists 2007-12-10 14:40:08 UTC 
Have a look at the example file. It contains the following :

1 - A cell containing a Internet link
2 - A cell containing a CIFS link (\\myServer\myDirectory)

3 - A cell using the "HYPERLINK" function and pointing to an internet link
4 - A cell using the "HYPERLINK" function and pointing to a CIFS link

Clicking on any link under windows works except for the case "4". In case "2"
Internet explorer is opened. In case "4", it does not (cf screenshot).

I WAS NOT able to successfully reproduce this bug.
My configuration:
OS:         Windows XP Home Edition 2002 SP2
Machine:    AMD Sempron 3000+ (1.58 GHz, 1.18 GB RAM) 
OpenOffice: v2.3.1


1 - The cell containing an Internet link (Cell A9 with "http://google.fr") 
2 - The cell containing a CIFS link (Cell A8 with "\\myServer\myDirectory")
3 - The cell containing the "HYPERLINK" function and pointing to the internet
link (Cell D10)
4 - The cell containing the "HYPERLINK" function and pointing to the CIFS link
(Cell D9)

My default browser (Mozilla Firefox v.2.0.0.11) opens up a correct web-site when
clicking on both cells 3 and 1. The French version of Google web-site indeed
opens up.
When I click on EITHER cell 2 or 4 NOTHING happens.

The attached .png pictures claims that if clicked on cell 2, then Internet
Explorer opens up, but if clicked on cell 4, then nothing opens up.
I was not able to reproduce that behaviour. In my case nothing happens if either
link 2 or 4 is clicked.

am I missing something? I am not too familiar with CIFS (Common Internet File
System). Do I need to do some configuration settings first in order to reproduce
the problem? The CIFS link given seems to have only the relative name, but what
about the server's name?
