Excel links to PDF files are not working.

I am using Excel 2013 and I have the latest version of Adobe Reader installed.

I right click on a cell and click "Hyperlink".

I make a link to a mapped network drive M:\Folder\Filename.pdf 

Whenever I click the link in Excel I get the message, "Cannot open the specified file"

If I put the exact same link into my explorer window it brings the PDF document right up with no problems.

When I click on "Edit Hyperlink",  It does change my link from the mapped drive to \\servername\Folder\Filename.pdf

but even if I copy the \\servername\Folder\Filename.pdf into my explorer window it still brings the PDF document up fine.

It is only when I click the link in Excel that I have a problem.

-Thanks for you help!
