Hyperlink field?

[labRAT]

Is there a way to hyperlink a field to the web? More specifically, can I have a field, that once filled in w/ text can also point to a web site, that is different for each record? Thanks for your help.

You can have a table that relates each record to a certain URL.

Then you can have a button active a script for OpenURL the URL value will be the related URL field.

OK, I made a new table and a record with one field for a web address. I then associated an address with the original record's scripted Open URL button field (using the relationships tab on define database. The field is a "hotspot" (a hand appears instead of the curser), but when I click, nothing happens, it doesn't see the URL.

What am I doing wrong?

Main Table

RecordID

textfield1 (can have it underlined if you want)

URL Table

RecordID

URL

You can have thle text field be a button that activates the OpenURL script, if you dont want it changing over to the hand icon, there is an option for that.

For your script, the OpenURL should point to your related URL field.

Then when the user clicks on the "textfield1" it should open the URL up in your default browser.
