Hyperlinks in pdf to excel files on my dropbox

[FINCHBU]

Hi I am trying to make hyperlinks in an pdf document to open excel documents on several locations on my dropbox. Currently I am able to make the hyperlinks in the pdf document and it will open the excel document with the online viewer. However I would like to open my excel program on my device because I connected my dropbox server with my Mac. Does anybody know if that's possible? The file location will start with your username so I can imagine that's hard to make a link if you hav multiple drivers?
