I have a classic 365 form where i am using the label column to present a link. To build that link i was to apply a reference but there appears no option to select any of the forms references and use them in the hyperlink string.

 

Any ideas?

Hi @DannyC,

In a controls settings you cannot reference another control.
Unfortunately this cannot be achieved out of the box.  You may need to use JavaScript in your form to build the URL and populate the label.
