E-mail and websites

I have got e-mail addresses and websites on my database and I have set them to Hyperlink but when I click on them it does not seem to do anything.

RE: e-mail and websites

Hi Suzanne

Thank you for your question

Initially I would check the following

1. Is the data in a valid format. Try cutting and pasting a few of the links into your browser and see if you can navigate to them.
2. Check with your IT support people that there are no security restrictions in place blocking Internet access from an Access database. (This last one is unlikely)

If this does not resolve the issue please get back to me so I can investigate other options

Regards

Stephen

Access tip:

Closing form after a certain time period

To make a form close automatically after a certain time period, you need to assign the close function to a macro.

Save the macro and ope up the form in design view. open the Properties sheet.

In the TimerInterval property enter the length of time you want the form open for. This should be in milliseconds, so for instance if you want the form open for 5 seconds enter 5000, for an minute enter 60000.

You now need to attach your macro (to execute the Close action) to the OnTimer event property of the form.
