Hyperlink from button to secure page

[tfaiers]

Hi Everyone,

I think this might be a permissions issue, but maybe someone specifically knows and as it starts on an Access Form, I thought I'd post it here.

I've got a hyperlink which is supposed to go to, as an example:

https://crm.zoho.com/crm/org123456/tab/Accounts/123456000654321

I'm logged into Zoho through Chrome and if I copy and paste the link manually into a new tab in the browser, the right account appears.

When I click on the button in the form, a new tab appears but only goes to https://crm.zoho.com/crm and ignores the rest of the link.

Is it possible to pass an https page to the browser or is there a security interception somewhere perhaps?

Many Thanks

Hi,

Not sure about a simple hyperlink field but I have done this using ShellExecute, which uses the default application and the correct logged in page shows up, as long as the session hasn’t expired yet.

Just my 2 cents...

Thank you, that put me on the right path for working out the problem, in the end I've used

CreateObject("Shell.Application").Open "https://crm.zoho.com/crm/org123456/tab/Accounts/" & Me.AccountID

This opens the default browser and yes as I'm already logged in, shows the correct record.
