Hi, I have a database that I have created for specific chemicals and I have scanned all my analysis for each chemical to my website. I would like to have a link added in my database for each individual analysis so it can open up from the internet. Is there anyway I can add a hyperlink into my database?

Thanks in advance for any help I can get on this.

Hi Michelle2
I think I know what you want.
This will give you a link to go to a web site from a record in your database.
Create a field (say URL) in yor database.
Then create a macro. command: OPEN select define file
Then type in the file name This! <<&quot;(name of your database).(field name)&quot;>> in this case the field name would be URL.
Then create a button linked to this macro and place on the view your using.
Enter the web address in the url field. Now that should take you to that web page when you click the macro button.
