Hello,

I am creating a new table and my client wants it to have a hyperlink to
a file (PDF, DOC, XLS) on the server. Once the link is clicked on, it
would need to start up the respective application as well.

Can this be done? What is involved?

Any detailed information would greatly be apprieciated.

TIA.

Phil.
 
Access has a Hyperlink data type for tables. Simply store the complete path
to the file, and it'll work the way you want.
 
Douglas,

Thanks, I will give it a go.
