 * Hey Guys!
 * New to WP and WP forums, so sorry if this doesn’t follow any rules/protocols 
   for new post!
 * Background – We recently installed WP 4.4.2 for an intranet site to publish a
   Master Document list (Excel spreadsheet) with hyperlinks many file located on
   a network share on our file server. We shared this document through OneDrive,
   and embedded the Excel file just fine, people can see it, search, all that fun
   stuff.
 * Problem – When users click on hyperlinks within the Excel document, nothing happens.
   I can see the webpage trying to query the FS on the bottom right (ei. File://///
   server\share\etc) but again, nothing happens. Same experience in IE, Chrome, 
   Firefox.
 * Info – I have tried adding this site to trusted site, with no effect. Tried various
   nomenclatures for the hyperlinks themselves, and some plugin’s that I thought
   might help (wpDataTables Lite, Tablepress).
 * Let me know if anything I said didn’t make sense, and thank you in advance for
   any help you are able to offer!
 * Cheers,
 * Josh

 * Fixed it!
 * Solution was to add a virtual directory in IIS, linked to the folder directory
   on the network share. The owner of the Master Document list now edit’s the hyperlink
   with the intranet path of the VD, and everything is good!
