I can only distribute my reports in PDF. My report includes the first two lines of text (up to 120 chr) of 18,000 complaint letters, grouped by location then by employee. I do not want to display the text in the PDF report (too much data) but I want it to popup when hover or click on employee name.
I format employee name with hyperlink and put " or "emailTo:"+{myfieldtext} in the hyprtlink formula, the hyperlink then displays in PDF export with full text in the yellow popunder "tool tip" fashion when hover over employee name. Is there a better way? I tried putting {myfieldtext} in as a tool tip but it does no transfer to PDF export. I also created a formula in hyperlink that displays the text in the body of a (popup) email when you click on employee name but that was confusing to the user.
