Please help.... I am migrating database tables to a sequel server with an
Access front-end. In sequel, I cannot set the field properties as a
hyperlink, but I need it to perform that way in Access. Is there a macro I
can create to have it turn the path in a text field into a hyperlink “on
click�
 
You can use Application.FollowHyperlink "LinkToFollow"

(where you'd put your value from the table where "LinkToFollow" is)

Incidentally, it's SQL Server, not sequel server.
 
Thanks so much on both topics. SQL is very new to me. With that, I need to
ask one more question...

Do I set this value in the SQL table somewhere (if yes, where) or do I set
this value in the Access form that is using the field? I'm not sure where to
place the what you gave me.

Thanks again!

What I gave you (Application.FollowHyperlink) is VBA code that you'll put in
some event on your form in Access.
