I don't think that's something that we should really want to happen.
That
would mean that in case the link wasn't found at the original
location, OO
would start a search on your drives to find the file. Imagine what would
happen if you had a lot of links in your document or in a network
environment with lots of disks. And all of that just because although
you
know where the file is, you want the OO to find it automatically for
you.

True but with hyperlink you have the option and works well.
I also noted that I can pick up a DDE variable from a windows app. and
as long as that app is open OO picks up any change that is made to the
variable in that app. So OO can read a variable from the "environment"
- I just can't find any literature on how to get OO to set and
"environment" DDE variable. Perhaps you have some ideas?
