I don't know much about sharepoint services.
How would you name a file from that domain in Excel's File / Open 
dialog?

In what way does Excel "crash" when you try to change a link source to 
a file in sharepoint services?

What versions of Excel and Windows are you using?

I have a client who uses a (non-Microsoft) document management system.
They have no way of linking to files held within that system and so 
applications which rely on linked files have to reside outside the 
system in order to be used (even if copies are held within the system 
for archiving purposes).
