Is there a way to make a field an email hyperlink. All I can find is;
after: "<br /><a href=\"mailto:{Mail}\"> {Mail} <a/>" which puts the email address in a line under the name and it can also be put above the name. I want to make the name field itself a hyperlink if the record has an email. "

Hello Keith,

You are close to solving this, you just need to use the Before and After fields like this:
in Before place following:

<a href=\"mailto:{Mail}\">

and in After :

<a/>

This will make anything in the cell be inside a link tag - thus the name will become an e-mail hyper-link.

Regards.

Thanks for your reply. Will your method only highlight those names that do have an email in the email field or will it make all names a hyperlink? In the grid I want to be able to see those names that have an email if this makes sense.

Regards,

Keith

Hello Keith,

That method will not take in regards if the {Mail} column for that record has entry or not. It will simply place an <a> tag around the name.

Regards.
