Good evening

I have a field which is set to hyperlink type, and on the form, as long as an enail address is prefixed with mailto: it all works fine - that is a single click on the data opens the default email program. Is there any way of not having to add the prefix, invariably some users forget the whole thing, or at least the colon.

Any help appreciated

TIA

Jim

Firstly you needed to post this question in the Forms forum.

Have a look at this link and adapt the post to your situation.

Alternatively do a search using the keyword 'hyperlink' and you will find loads of answers.
