fine.
However, when I run my report via the browser after deploying it, the
hyperlinks doesn't work.

Hyperlink / Action Button

I am rendering reports using SQL reporting services. I would like a report
rendered with a hyperlink/action button that would contain an ID value that
will be used in rendering a new page...ie. I need to pass a row ID.
How can this be done?http://localhost/ReportServer?/<ReportFolder>/<ReportName>&rc:Toolbar=true&rs:Command=Render&RowID=1
Here is a sample url that can be click and will render a report passing it
the RowID parameter value.
Notice <ReportFolder> and the <ReportName> in the Url. You will need to
replace these with your data that makes since.
Bottom line is, you can dynamically create a Url that will render a report
to the browser based on the parameters passed in the Url.
I hope this makes sense.

hyperlink

Hi everyone, I am trying to hyperlink a file to the report. We are running visual and in one of the fields, we have a pdf file linked to it. When I tried making a report that pulls that information so we can click on it and be linked directly to the file, but all it gives me is the path to the file. Is it possible to link it that way? I notice under properties, there are option for linking but its just for a report, bookmark, and URL. but none for direct files. Please help.

Thanks

I am not so sure that this is a supported feature in Business Intelligence Studio. It is quite simple to do using Visual Studio, though.

You would need to write code to programmatically open the file.

I am running visual studio .net 2003. but where can I get info so I can write code to open it like you said?|||

You want to handle an event such as a linkbutton click event.

What language do you prefer? C#, VB? I'll dig up some sample code for you.

What type of file are you opening and what program do you want to open it with?

|||

Here is how to open a file in notepad.

C#

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start( "notepad.exe", "text.txt");

VB

Process.Start("notepad.exe", "c:\info.txt")

|||

Oh ok, well any language will be fine as long as it works, and the file is a PDF.

Thanks

OK, then it would probably be something like this:

Process.Start("Acrobat.exe", "c:\myFile.pdf")

Hyperlink

Dear friends,
How we can insert hyperlink column in a sql table? Is there is any datatype?
gracesonuse VARCHAR(255)|||If I remember correctly, if you want that other office applications would recognize the content of the field as a hyperlink, you should include it between "#', that is 'http://a.b.c' should be stored into your field as '#http://a.b.c#'

I have another question about my Access/SqL Database. one of my tables is going to have 2 or 3 hyperlinks and I was wondering can that be done through sql or would I be better off doing it through access?? (the database consist of sQL tables but the gui for the users is access)

thank you

I'd like to help, but I have no idea what you mean?

a tables has hyperlinks? Like a column to hold data?

OK so....what's the question?|||I'm sorry I didnt explain that very well. What I meant was in access one of the datatypes can be a Hyperlink. Is that possible in SQL to make a datatype a hyperlink, would that possibly be the Image (though I doubt it) datatype I'm seeing in sQL?

thank you Brett :)|||Nope, sorry!

The "hyperlink-ness" of a piece of text is determined by an agreement between the web-server/client, not by the SQL Server. You'll have to make that majik appear after the data has left the SQL server.

-PatP|||I had a feeling you were going to say that, Ok well plan be is that I can create a hyperlink in access through a form.

Thanks anyways Guys|||That is purely an interface issue. Since Access combines a database engine with a user interface, it is not surprising that it has this functionality. SQL Server is NOT an interface.

Store your data as a string, because that is essentially what Access is doing. It just also makes a mental note for the interface to treat is like a hyperlink.

Is it possible to store an email address as a hyperlink in SQL Server table?
Thanks
No, there is not a hyperlink data type in SQL. You will have to store the
value as a different data type and do the programming on the front end
application to use it as a hyperlink. I would suggest varchar, but I am
fairly new to SQL and there may be a better data type.

|||You can store the email address as character data in SQL Server. However,
hyperlink functionality (launch email client or browser) is a function of
the front-end application, not the relational database. For example, if you
are rendering data in html, you could enclose the email address in an anchor
tag:
<a href="http://links.10026.com/?link=mailto:me@.mydomain.com">me@.mydomain.com</a>
Hope this helps.
