Hey!
In the form frm_record2 I have a subform that contains the songs on the disc.

Previously, it was possible to add a hyperlink to the recorded song on my hard drive by right clicking in the field.
Something happened when I experimented with using the FileDialog function.
In the end, I decided that hyperlink was a better option.
Since then, I have not been able to add the hyperlink to the dialog box. I've been looking for what could be wrong without finding it.
The fields are in a subform, but I do not think it should matter.
In the form frm_program I have two fields that work great with the hyperlink box.

Please help me!

Hope it is OK with you that the forms are in Swedish.

You don't need it to be a hyperlink type field, just store the path and format the display to look like a hyperlink, and then use the click or double click property to open the field path.

Thanks @Minty but that's what I was trying to do when I decided to back off.
Hyperlink's dialog box provided more benefits, I thought.
Among other things, the ability to only display the file name and that it became clickable to quickly access the file.
So I just need help getting that feature back in this form.
If I create a new form with the same field, it becomes clickable and I can get a hyperlink dialog box.
I think there is some code that I missed to delete but I can not find it.

Well the textbox has a property IsHyperlink

Could it be that simple?

Du kan inte lägga till den eftersom genvägsmenyn för din underform är i stängd position, du måste öppna den.
Genvägsmenyn för subformegenskaper blir ja

No, tried that
You cannot add it because the shortcut menu of your subform is in the closed position, you have to open it.
I'm not sure what you mean @onur_can
Can not find the exact phrase in Swedish.
Can you take a screenshot of the place in properties that is wrong?

Hi Leif. I'm not sure what you mean. I downloaded your file and was able to click on both those textboxes. I just get an error because I don't have the files on my machine, but it tells me Access was trying to open them.

PS. I even tried right-clicking on either textbox and was able to see the Hyperlink option in the context menu.

Strange! It does not work that way at all with me.

You are linking to a hard-drive, is it available at time of linking?

Oh, I just saw this. Please see the image I posted above. I can see the Hyperlink option when I right-click on your Textbox.
