Hi

I'm trying to create a hyperlink for a column in infoview, but it turns out to be a bit difficult. The problem is that the URL is in a non standard format, like this:


What I'm having trouble with is the special characters, such as the + and = sign - the get turned into %252Bb. Does anyone know a way to hardcode these values into the link ?
 
You could use the "replace" formula and replace all the %252Bb with the proper character.

Replace({fieldname}, "%252Bb", "+")

Now if both the + and = gets changed to the same set of characters, then that poses a problem for this formula use.
 
Have you enclosed the URL in double quotes?

Code:
"[URL unfurl="true"]http://server/CAisd/pdmweb?OP=SEARCH+FACTORY=cr+SKIPLIST=1+QBE.EQ.id=12345"[/URL]
[/code'
