I have hundreds of items that are hyperlinks to pdf's set to open in my pdf software.

 

I just found that when I click a link now, instead of opening the pdf, it opens the scratch grid.  At first I thought it was importing the pdf contents but that's not it.  It's a weird collection of items and subitems that make no sense to me.

 

Haven't been able to find an answer

 

Here's what the hypertext dialogue looks like:

 

These are the options used when the links were created:

 

In the Scratch grid it's showing a bizzare array of items displayed in blue font.  It might be displaying all my pdf files plus context parents but even that doesnt explain some of the tems.

 

What's happening and how can I get my links to open PDF's in the external program?
