Does anyone know how to link to an internal shared drive (e.g., \\servername\folder)
When I try inserting a link, it get an error that it is not a valid address. What am I missing?

Thanks for the help!
Dennis

Welcome to our community, Dennis

You might try first clicking the down arrow to the left of where the Hyperlink information goes in the Hyperlink dialog. From there, choose File... Then type the \\servername\folder in the File Name field.

If that fails (and it may) you may wish to consider using a Redirect page to link to the file.

Cheers... Rick

I have found that even when it gives me that error the link still works.
