Inserting hyperlinks into a field in a record

[Courtney]

Hello and thanks in advance for any help!

I am interested to know how to enter a hyperlink into an existing field in
form view. I would like to be able to click on the links which would then
open excel or word documents or websites.

Please let me know if I need to provide more information about my query.

Thanks!

Hi Courtney,

Are you the Administrator of the Database? If so, you need to change the
field type in the table to Hyperlink. Then on the form you can change it to a
hyperlink.

I personally use a separate table to store my hyperlinks and make a Combo
Box on the form so when you open the form you can select a hyperlink from a
varied selecetion. Just a suggestion.

Hope this helps!!
