The image files are stored in a directory "B" (german "Bilder") relative to
the directory of the spreadsheet, the other links are stored in similarly
abbreviated subdirectories.
Because some oft the other files are quite large the whole structure is
copied to locally available subdirectories on the users private PCs - some
Windows, some linux.
This is _not_ the problem. The problem is, that relative links don't work in
spreadsheets in Calc.
