Open a web page form an hyperlink field 1

[Spruce4U]

Whenever I click on an URL in a hyperlink field of one of my Access tables, nothing happens.

The link is blue and underlined, and when I move the pointer over it, it changes itself into a hand, as it does on my internet browser, but nothing happens when I click.

Has anybody seen that problem?

What is the command line in VBA to do it?

Thanks.

Have a look at the field to make sure it is in the format:
Some Link#Some Link#
That is, that the URL is shown between hash marks.

You can use Application.FollowHyperlink with any kind of text:
FollowHyperlink "C:\Docs\MyDocument.doc"
FollowHyperlink "
