Hi everyone

I am looking for some help in making a button that basically open a file from a predetermined folder on the server but gets the file name from a field in the current record.

Can this be done??

example

c:\Data is the data source and image1 is the file name.

a buton which will open the image1 file from the data folder when image1 is from a field in a record.

BTW i can't use embedding cos of size or normal linking due to the person linking the file not being on site. They just have an exact replica of the Data folder.

Cheers
