Mark, I'm afraid that hyperlinks that you define to a specific file and
folder on your computer have a specific address and path on your computer.
Those links would have to be redefined by each new user to fit their specific
computer folders and directories.

Mark, I think the operation that you require is to embed a document. Click
on InsertObject then select the Create from File tab. Browse for the
required file and check the Display as Icon box
