It depends what you'd consider the defintion of the term "learn to adjust?"
1)Your folder/directory strucure of of both your images and web pages on
your local computer should parallel the folder/directory structure on your
website.
2) In the Word/ Web Options/
Tools / Options / General / Web Options/ Files/ Turn off/ Oragnaize
Files in supporting folder.
3) However even with the above, Word is very inconsitent in editing links.
a) Word was never intended to be used to create web pages (expecially a
functioning 9,000 page site).
