I am trying to display the URL link to some documents. I can get the document names to appear but it doesn't show the URL. If I remove the A Href, it prints the path to the file. I want the user to be able to click on the URL to open the document. What am I doing wrong? Is there a better way to do this?

Thanks,

Mapman04

Here's the source. It looks like it should list the URL but nothing appears in the column.

Thanks,

You haven't specified any text between the anchor tags so it won't display anything...
