Difference: Split database and make Accde

I have one more question. Now the db that I have created stores the paths of some docs on a shared drive. And these are presented to the user through forms. So if a user wants to access these docs he has to click the link which opens that particular doc. The problem is the links that the user clicks on shows the entire path of the file. And since I have to give full rights to the users to make the forms work it's possible they could locate the folder through the file paths and play a mischief with the files on the shared drive. So how do I prevent Access from displaying the paths while at the same time provide a link to the users to click on?
As that is really an entirely new question, you should start a new thread for it. That will also increase the chances that others see it too (as it will appear as an unanswered question).
