Our finance department prepares worksheets in MS Excel and then sends them to me to be filled out. The worksheets contain hyperlinks to items on the Finance Dept server. (They then input submitted worksheets onto the main company budget.) 

I fill out my worksheets, send them back, and the hyperlinks have all been changed. They look fine in LO, but not back on my Finance's machine. 

I have tried doing Tools/Options/ Load/Save / General and unchecking "save URL relative to file system." 

This does not work. 

My office is one of several off-site of the main office, but the only one that uses LO, and I am the only one with this problem. 

My computer runs Gentoo and LO.
