How to have multiple link types in a single field
  • mhaas August 13, 2010 1:26PM
    I want to set up a table that has a web link to one of two domains prepended to a file name stored in the spreadsheet record of a single field. I can set up a field with a "show Link in Cell" if all links go to a single URL/link type. However I can't figure (if it is possible) to have multiple link types in a single field. If I set up two fields (columns) each linked to one of the two domains plus the filename in each record, it works but then the data table shows both links as separate fields. I want one field to show that goes seamlessly to whatever link I entered. I thought I could just enter the entire URL in the record but this is not working for me.

    I'm assuming the cells in your field are like this:

    http://site.com/abc
    http://www.zzz.com/index.html

    When you edit your link configuration, change "http" to "None". Delete everything in the main text area. Click "insert field" and choose your field. Test the link in the preview area. Then configure the table view (and elsewhere, e.g. details) to use this link.

    Does this do what you want?
