I am trying to link to a shared network drive in smartforms and I can't seem to find a way.  I have tried using the hyperlink control but it doesn't accept the file:// protocol.  Is there another control I am missing that would be able to link to a shared drive?

 

Thank you for your assistance.

If all you want is a hyperlink then please try this.

 

Drag a data label on the form or view. Then in the text property of the data label type type the following html hyperlink.

 

<a href=htp://something> click here</a>

 

Now when you run the form or view it should turn into t click me link.

 

Hope that helps


I'm trying to do the same exact thing and my A hrefs keep going away and I can't get it to link.  This is in a HTML Control I'm using to pass a link into an email.

 

Tried the original a href=" "  and it added in a a href="file///S:aksldjfklajskdjfa"  didn't work.

Now I'm trying the a href=htp and it disappears and still doesn't work.

 

Need to link to a Shared Folder  S:folderfolderfolderfilename

<a href=htp://sharedfolderFileName.docx">Click Here</a>
<a href="file:///sharedfolderFileName.docx">Click here to reference FlowCal membership</a>
