HI all,

Im not sure if my problem was mention or solved, i tried looking around the forum but couldnt find anything
I created a database in Access with an URl Hyperlink and ann email address and it works fine but when i export it to ASPRuner, the hyperlink doesnt work, instead it adds a bunch of # and other strings in the record (Ex: http://#www.#somesite.com)
Can anyone please help me, I am using the trail version of ASPRuunner PRo. I dont have alot of experiance with ASP so please explain it to me in BAby Steps
Thankxxx

Amanda,
the easiest way to get rid of this issue is to change field type from Hyperlink to Text in MS Access.
MS Access stores hyperlinks in it's internal format (adding # characters to URL).

Hi,
do not forget to set View as type to Hyperlink for hyperlink field and to Email hyperlink for email field.
