Question : Word 2007 - Hyperlinks to Outlook Blocked

Hi - I posted this question over a month ago but received no response - is there anyone who has got any clue?:

Hi,

I wondered if anyone may be able to help on the following issue
(driving me crazy!)

I create a hyperlink to a Outlook Public Folder (by dragging the
folder onto a Word document).

When I click on this hyperlink ,I firstly get a message "Microsoft has
identified a potential security concern. The location may be unsafe.
Do you wish to continue?" I say 'Yes' and then an Internet Explorer
page is displayed with a "Cannot display this webpage" message.

This behaviour only happens in Office/Word 2007 - when I log on to another
PC that has Word 2003 installed, I can click on the hyperlink and
the Outlook Public Folder is opened as expected.

If you create hyperlinks within a mail message in Outlook 2007 it also works so it is a problem with Word I suspect.

Doe anyone have any ideas on this? Is there a setting on Word 2007
that would affect hyperlinks to Outlook?


Any help much appreciated,


Adele

Answer : Word 2007 - Hyperlinks to Outlook Blocked

Try creating a manual hyperlink to the folder like this http://exchangeserver/public/foldername/ in Word and see if that works. Maybe the OLE linking (or whatever its called now) isn't working properly with Word 2007.
