Is there a hyperlink field option in Base?

Post by Roger »

MS Access has this option, but I cannot find in Base.

Is it possible?

You can't find it because it is not there. Which is a little bit odd actually, if you added a Hyperlink to a Calc file or a Writer file it would work - but there are no data aware controls that will know what to do with it one.

You will need to use a macro to mimic a hyperlink
