Hyperlink Property

Hi
Is it possible to have a datafields hyperlink property defined by another datafield

Example :
2 fields in my database

SiteName,Hyperlink
Google,https://www.google.com
Yahoo,https://www.yahoo.com
facebook,https://www.facebook.com

Can I write a report that displays the first field

Google
Yahoo
Facebook

But when the user clicks on that field it takes them to the hyperlink defined in the second field?

hope that makes sense and thanks for any help

  • Hi Tim,

    This is not currently a feature of ReportBuilder but I can see how it would be useful. I will add this to our list of possible enhancements.

    Currently you would need to manually update the HyperLink property from an event that fires after the data traverses (DetailBand.BeforePrint, DBText.OnPrint).

    Best Regards,
