Setting a hyperlink using a relative path

Here are my example folders and documents

c:\b.odt
c:\myfolder
c:\myfolder\a.odt

I would like to create a hyperlink in a.odt that references b.odt

The direct path for the hyper link will look like this: c:\b.odt

However different people will have different paths. However, b.odt will always be in the same directory as myfolder.

I tried to use ./ but it wasn't working.

Is there a way I can make a hyperlink without the direct path?

Make sure you select the Document option in the Hyperlink dialog (as opposed to Internet. You may also have to preface with "file://" and/or apply the relative links setting in Options -> Load/Save -> General.
