My dissertaiton has a movie that is recorded in a CD. I would like to make a hyperlink to this file in word that can be read by faculty directly in their computer. However, different computers have different defaut CD drivers (D: , E: or F: and so on), so
D:\\movie.avi
will not work in computer with E: as CD driver.
How to write such a hyperlink then?

我觉得如果你的dissertation是在光盘里打开的（不是先被人copy到硬盘的），用..\movies试一下，如果有可能被人从硬盘里打开的话，估计要调用注册表的东西了。
