Hyperlink does not work

Greetings,

I have a form where a user needs to select data from three different drop
down menus. After those choices have been made, the result is displayed
within a text box. The result contains several fields, one of which is a
hyperlink. The hyperlink is no longer active and I'm assuming this is
because once it was loaded in the text box the hyperlink property becomes
text. Is that correct? Is there a work around? Do I need to use a subform?

Your help is appreciated.

Check VBA Help for Application.Fol lowHyperlink and see if that helps, if the
hyperlink is in its own separate textbox. If the hyperlink is just embedded
in a text string, Text Boxes in Access 2003 and earlier do not support
formatting. Look into the ActiveX Rich Text Box or the Text Box features in
Access 2007.

I had posted this problem earlier and just noticed that the Hyperlink is the problem. Apparently, it doesn't figure out the path correctly. It uses the path of the file it is in, even if it is a control. I have 2 files "displayCompanyJobs.aspx" and "displayCompanyOverview.aspx" which are in both the folder "/jobseeker/" and "/employer/". I have a user control "displayCompanyJobs.ascx" that is in my /applicant/
