Hyperlinks using OUTPUTTO with an Access Report in RTF format

G

Guest

I am trying to utilize hyperlinks within an Access report.
Using the Snapshot output type, it does not allow clicking on the hyperlink.
Using the RTF format, it does not show the hyperlink address.
Using Excel, it shows the hyperlink address, but it does not allow clicking
to access the hyperlink.
I would prefer to use the RTF output.
How can I can usable Hyperlinks to work ?
Thanks in advance !

There's really no way to effectively output an Access report to either RTF
or to any other format with active hyper links. The best option is really
to print the report to a PDF file, using a PDF printer such as Win2PDF
(www.daneprairie.com) and/or PDF-XChange etc., that support detection and
creation of hyperlinks in the output file. To make it work you have to
display the hyperlink in the Access report in its full cannoical format e.g.
http://www.somewhere.com
