You will need to make up the links by looking at Outlook help. For example, you will be able to go to a contact in Outlook by following this procedure:
- When you are editing, click on “Insert into Topic Text–Jump link to a file.”
- The wizard starts up.
-
Enter the following in the Target File:
Outlook:\\Personal Folders\Contacts\~James White
Here, the last part James White is the Full Name of the contact.
- Enter a suitable link text in the Link Text box that you want to show up for the link (or leave it empty).
- Insert the link and test.
To see details on various link formats, please see Outlook 2003 help. Just start a help search online in Outlook 2003 on “links.” Then click on “Types of hyperlinks”. You will find the information at the bottom.
In office 2007, you will be able to copy such links directly from any office application (including Outlook 2007) and paste in WhizFolders with a [~jumpfile enclosure. It becomes much easier.
Update, 2018: There is also a freeware utility with which you can easily copy the above links from Outlook 2003 (or earlier). Unfortunately, the utility “Linker for Windows” is no longer seen in Google search results.
Reverse links are possible too! WhizFolders 6 has a new feature called Copy Universal Link that allows you to copy a similar link to a topic or position in WhizFolders and paste it in Outlook or any other application. This allows you to open that topic from that other application easily. I am going to write another article next to explain Universal Links.
