Hi All,

Need help with linking a file to a calendar reminder (event).

In Outlook I used to be able to easily link a local file located in a specified folder on my computer. For eg: I would link a .pdf invoice for my electricity bill in a folder on my computer. I would create the event to remind me I had to pay this invoice and after creating the reminder link that PDF invoice to the event and when I clicked on it, it would open the invoice using Acrobat reader or whatever other PDF reader I assigned.

I tried to attach the link using the "website" attachment tab to the event in T'bird calendar and assigned Acrobat to open the file (invoice). Acrobat does open, but returns an error saying it can't find the .pdf file. The file is definitely in the nominated folder and the link to it is correct but file doesn't open. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Any assistance much appreciated. Thank You
