Hi All,

Hopefully this will be a simple question. I want to make it so that when someone clicks on an e-mail (in the layout, or web browser)address it opens up the mail client and fills the address portion of the e-mail. (Just like like the html "mailto" command) Any suggestions?

make the email field on your layout a button and attach it to a Send Mail script (or single script step). Have the email address use calc set to the parent record email address field.

I did this, and it worked in FileMaker when I clicked on the button, but when I clicked on it in the web browser nothing happend. (just using IWP and http://localhost)

OpenURL["mailto:" & emailAddressField]
