Adding a Link to a word document
Hi...
I am a complete newbie to outlook forms and I've just started playing around with them and I'm stuck... I have created a form for new equipment, which part way through asks if training is required... (set up a training course Yes/No) I would like to have a link to Training request form - which is currently a word doc on a different network drive... Not 100% sure how this is going to work, as after trawling through the messages here, it would appear I need to have the a message box (body of the email) within the form. When I tried this I couldn't get the hyperlink to work... e.g. didn't get the blue line underneath... Can I get a command button to do the same thing? I am using Outlook 2003. Anybody able to point me in the right direction please... -- The Wheel is spinning but the hamster is dead...

Adding a Link to a word document
I have found some code which might just do the trick...
Sub Label1_Click() Set objWeb = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") objWeb.Navigate Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages _ ("P.2").Controls("Label1").Caption objWeb.Visible = True End Sub Please can someone show me how to modify it... Thanks -- The Wheel is still spinning, but the hamster is dead... "Cavedwella" wrote: Hi... I am a complete newbie to outlook forms and I've just started playing around with them and I'm stuck...

Adding a Link to a word document
If you want to use that technique, simply put the file:// URL for the document you want to open as the caption for the label.

Please explain in detail what "doesn't work" means. We don't know how you've published the form, whether other code on the form works, etc.
