Question about portals

[Reige]

Hi all,

I have two problems:

1) I am working on a document control DB and was wondering if it is possible to put a link to a document in a portal and make that clickable to open the file? I know you can click to open a file if the link is stored in a container.

I was thinking maybe I can put containers inside the portal but when I do this, clicking on the portal row does nothing. Maybe format the portal row as a button and have a script find the link and open it is the way to go?

2) Can I show a report in a container or portal field?

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Rich.
