links for fields

[graham menzies-kitchin]

Have good grasp of mdb's. Beginner with sql
Have sql db of charity organisations with contact details, all fairly
simple. Have one Field for web addresses entered www.xxxxx.co.uk another
for emails entered aaaa@bbbb. Unable to work out how to make these active.
Its certainly not like mdb's!
Created Page with dropdown list which when clicked gives details of
selected charity. Want the above 2 entries 'live'.
Any help from the collective intelligence would be gratefully received.

Hi

SQL Server does not care about the data.

If you want to make them active, you need to do this in the client
application/Web page by adding the <A HREF> and MAILTO tags.

I had tried that. Doesn't work. Mark you, the MS conversion to htm provides
a lot of incomprehensible junk (in my opinion) and the thought of finding
600+ entries and altering them is a life times work. I will work it out
somehow, unless you have any other bright ideas.
Thanks anyway.
