Remarks
By default, ArcPad looks for hyperlink attribute data in the layer's path, unless the path is explicitly set in the attribute data. For example, if a feature's hyperlink attribute data contains the value "picture.jpg", then ArcPad looks for the file picture.jpg in the layer's path; however, if the value is "\My Documents\Pictures\picture.jpg", then ArcPad looks for the file picture.jpg in \My Documents\Pictures.
Setting the HyperlinkPath property changes this behavior so that ArcPad looks in the path specified by the HyperlinkPath property instead of the layer's path when the path is not explicitly set in the attribute data. For example, if the HyperlinkPath is "\My Documents\Data" and a feature's hyperlink attribute data contains the value "picture.jpg", then ArcPad will look for the file picture.jpg in \My Documents\Data; however, if the value is "\My Documents\Pictures\picture.jpg", then ArcPad will ignore the HyperlinkPath value and look for the file picure.jpg in \My Documents\Pictures.
