Answered Dynamic Links - need a solution without server intervention

    I'm looking for a solution for my shortcuts.  I'm trying to make them dynamic.

    Restriction:  I do not and have no server permissions but I can possibly able to run a script within my department on each computer.


    I've been looking at things like mklink and folder redirection but they all seem to involve something done on the server.


    e.g.

    I have a file located in

    \\SERVER01\Data\ENGINEERING SERVICES\NEW Z Drive\Current Products\Subassemblies\Under Review\SUB835 FT128 Ext Termination Board\Work Instructions\Document Control - SUB835B-SUB836B.docx


    if the path was changed to (\NEW Z Drive removed):

    \\SERVER01\Data\ENGINEERING SERVICES\Current Products\Subassemblies\Under Review\SUB835 FT128 Ext Termination Board\Work Instructions\Document Control - SUB835B-SUB836B.docx

    the shortcut to the file Document Control - SUB835B-SUB836B.docx would have been lost.

    for that matter if the Document Control - SUB835B-SUB836B.docx was moved to \Subassemblies the link would also have been broken.


    Is there another way?
