URL in a text box
 

Is it possible to set properties(?) in a text box, in a form, so when an
email address is entered it will be a URL and when clicked it will open a
message box to compose an email? If so, just how would that be done? Thanks

URL in a text box
 

URL's aren't automatically recognized by the Text Box control in Outlook.
You'd have to fake it: use a blue, underlined font and set a custom mouse
icon to any pointing hand type cursors you may have. Then trap the Click
event for the control and create a new message then.
