In a datawindow object it is possible to insert an object of type hyperlink, which when exported to Pdf, hyperlinks also work.

Hi Raul;

  Yes & No ....

  • No - The DWO does not have a HyperLink link control feature.
  • Yes - If you create a HyperLink  UserObject. Then use the OpenUserObject() command at run time to open the UO over top of a DW Control / DWO. The App user should not know that what they clicked on was not a DWO object / column.  Food for thought.

HTH

Hi Chris,

I am using 2022 R3 3391.

It looks like currently we can't attach a URL within a Datawindow.

if so, will the hyperlinking facility be added to a Text Control (or any other control) in a datawindow, so that when we create a PDF doc using the NativePDF! in PB, the receiver of that PDF document can click on the link and access the URL? 

Thanks in advance for any help.

 

Moorthy

Hi Moorthy;

AFAIK: This is not on the feature radar. However, I would now suggest that you open a Standard Support Ticket as an "enhancement request" for this feature to be added.
