XPath Hyperlink

[Guest]

I would like to use the value of an existing field as my hyperlink e.g. "c:\"&DRAWING#&".DWG" - the DRAWING# is the value on the form. This would allow me to open an AutoCAD drawing from Access without having to enter a specific hyperlink for each drawing

In Microsoft Office Assistance I read about XPath but couldn't find it in Access 2003. It looks like it would allow me to "build" the value of the hyperlink as I show above. Can you tell me where to find the XPath option or how I can "build" the value of the hyperlink field?

Any help would be greatly appriciated!!

Thank

As it turns out, I just wrote an article for Database Journal that will come
out in January. The source code is available at my web site. Not sure
if this will help you, but you can download the sample code now ...
