I have been trying to make hyperlinks work from Excel97 to open pdf files on AcrobatReader.

Both programs are correctly installed in PlayOnLinux and the pdf file association is set up correctly in the Settings.

However, when I click on a pdf hyperlink in Excel, I get the message “No program is registered to open this file”.

I'm puzzled that Excel and AcrobatReader both have their own drive_c folders:
/home/pabzum/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/AdobeAcrobatReaderDC/drive_c/windows
/home/pabzum/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/Excel97/drive_c/windows
Shouldn’t this be the other way round?
Can this have anything to do with the problem?
