Hyperlinks

rbuser

Hi

It is possible to use the hyperlink (RB 11.06) in another way different than
open web pages or mails?. I mean, for example opening a customer card for
instance. If we have a event after doing click on a hypelink we can see if
is a hyperlink controlled by the Report builder engine or if this hyperlink
must be controled internally for my application.

Please let me know if this is possible.

Hi Jesus,

You can use the OnDrawCommandClick event of any report component to make it
clickable in the preview window. This allows you to fully customize what
happens when a components is clicked.

Sorry I forgot to mention that all my reports are stored in a database, so I
do not know how I can implement this event.

Please let me know.

Hi Jesus,

Remember that the ability to open anything other than a hyperlink when
clicking a report component is not a built-in feature of ReportBuilder.

You can implement the OnDrawCommandClick event using RAP if you are loading
templates. Otherwise you will need to know the exact component you want to
click and implement the event (after finding the component) inside the
Template.OnLoadEnd event. The following articles can help with what you
need.
