Richard:
I do not have a time-tested solution for you, but perhaps I can point
you in (what I hope is) a productive direction:
1. Create a "testbed" form: "controlTest" for on-the-fly
experimentation;
2. Insert a "Link Label" from "Additional Controls;
3. Highlight the control, and hit [F11] to open Object Properties;
4. Click on the yellow Help balloon in the lower-left hand corner of the
Properties panel;
5. Select "HTML Text".
This may be what you're looking for as a starting point.
Hope that helps. Best, Bruce

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Creating web link within a form
I need help on a capability many of you have probably conquered long
ago. I would like to display a web link on a form (e.g.
https://www.myweblink.com) such that when the user clicks on it, it
will open a web browser (their default web browser is preferred), and
navigate to and display the web site in the link. This action would
emulate clicking on a web link within a Microsoft Word document to
display that web link in your web browser. I am assuming this can be
done without purchasing the R:BASE Plugin-Power Pack (???)
I have explored 2 ideas and have insufficient knowledge on both.
1. Display the text using a Static Text property, then place some
commands in it's On Double Click EEP. I don't know what commands would
be needed, but am guessing they would include the LAUNCH command to
open the browser.
2. Use the Internet Control Web Browser property, which I don't
understand at all what it does.
Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
