When I create a hyperlink to a network location in Word
and then email that document through Outlook, the
hyperlink at the receiver's end points to C:\Documents and
Settings\user\... instead of the network location. Is
there a setting in Word or Outlook to correct this
problem? I can't seem to find it.

The problem here is most likely that your hyperlink is set up to look in
C:\Documents and Settings\user\... on the local machine instead of on a
network drive. When the recipient gets the document, the hyperlink still
points to the local C drive - Word has no way of knowing that it's a
different C drive.

Cheers
