Creating a Link to an Existing Document 

Use

As well as copying documents in the Documents substructure, you can also set links to documents that are stored on a local drive. Copies are standalone documents, which are independent of the original. When you work with links, however, you connect to the same document from different places in the Q&Adb and edit the original centrally.

Procedure

  1. Select a category in the Documents substructure.
  2. Open one of the views on the upper right screen area.
  3. On the upper or lower right screen area, open the context menu (right mouse click) and choose Add ® Link to Existing.
  4. A dialog box appears. Select the document to which you would like to set a link.
  5. Projects is the standard directory for linked documents in the Documents substructure.

  6. Choose Open.
    The link is inserted on the lower right screen area, from where it can be viewed and edited.
