What is the trick

I have a field in my access DB, that is a hyperlink to an IP address.

When I display that field on my site using ASP, the link doesn't come
across.

This is displayed
162.136.133.36#http://162.136.133.36#

The code to display the field is below
response.write "<TD WIDTH=200>" & vbcrlf
response.write( rs("IP_Address" ))
response.write "</TD>" & vbcrlf

Is there a workaround? I have also tried to make the field a text field
with HTTP:// in front of the rs("IP_Address" ) and that doesn't work either.

Thanks in advance.

Don't use the hyperlink datatype! Just store 'http://162.136.133.36' in a
text(255) column. Your ASP is going to have to build a link anyway:

ip = rs("IP_Address" )
response.write( "<a href=" & ip & ">" & ip & "</a>")

Aaron,

One last question, that works fine, when I click on the link, it is putting
my web server address in front of the IP address and the link won't work.

Are you putting http:// in yourself? Or are you storing it? From your
initial message, it looked like you were storing "http://x.x.x.x/" not
"x.x.x.x" ... if the latter, well, you need to tell the browser that you
don't mean a folder on your machine called "x.x.x.x" so

response.write( "<a href=http://" & ip & ">" & ip & "</a>")

Did you include the http in the href or is it just href=162.136.13 3.36? If
you include the http, it shouldn't be a problem.

Is there a function that takes a number with binary numeral a1...an to the number with binary numeral b1...bn, where each bi is 1 if ai is 0, and vice versa?
