I have just created a database with over 2000 records imported from a text file. Now, the problem I have is that one of the fields is a web address (therefore, I want it to be a hyperlink). I have set the format for the field to Hyperlink and yes..it gives me the lovley underlined blue colour. But when I click on it, nothing happens. If I go into the hyperlink properties, the actual hyperlink section is empty.
Is there a quick way to resolve this so that I can go to any record in the database and click on the field with the web address and *POOF*, stright into IE and away we go..

It's ok, I have figure it out.
Access does not like HTTP:// in front of the address..

Strange.. O well,

Erads.
