Veering slightly off topic, but if you do anything en-masse based on the TextEntryHTML field of the TextEntries, be prepared for some hidden horrors - if users paste text in directly from Word or similar programmes, you can get some really unpleasant mark-up in there. In many applications you won't want to dump it directly to a web page.

John,

We have simply dropped in the required href text and used the web page to 
render it correctly. The text entry functionality is not an HTML editor (though 
that would be nice), but you can copy the text from an HTML source, paste it 
into a text entry field, and TMS will save a version in the table's 
TextEntryHTML field.  I'veattached a sample row from our database.

Subject: [MCN-L] Links in TMS notes field

Calling on the MCN Collective Hive Mind
At an individual object level in TMS there is a "Notes" tab and within "Notes" there are 
"Text Entries"
Text Entries are a rich text field and any <bracketed text> is rendered to the 
page. Does anyone know how to create hyperlinks within the Text Entries?
I know it can be done. We even have examples of links within our own entries 
but they were created prior to the RTF formatting Thanks in advance John Gordy
