Tell the users they are morons
There are two options here.
1. Add a field to the table to allow them a second hyperlink. Problem here
is that as soon as you do that they will want 3. This would, however, be the
least impact on your database and form designs.
2. Create a new table that would relate to the table where tihe link is now
and move the link field to the new table. Then the user could have as many
links as they wanted. This would cause a lot of rework in your database, so
although to a database purist, it is the correct way to do it (it really is),
it would be more work to implement.

So, solution is to find out how many links the users want, make them sign
in blood that they will never want another link, and implement solution one.
The next step is to purchase a baseball bat to keep under your desk in case
the user ever asks for another link.
