WWW In an Access Form?

[Tezdread]

Hi all,

Is it possible to run web pages from within an Access form?

I've heard there's an Active X plugin that will enable me to do this but haven't found it yet?

Has anyone used this?

It is possible. See the attached sample database.

Hope this helps you.

I also like the in database web. hyperlinks in a database is easy, but I will set up an example and submit it

embedded form hyperlinks from table information: See Attached example.

To do this just create a table with one of the fields in the table storing information as a URL address: example: www.ListenLoudly.com and you can then do either of 2 things.

1) if you are going to view data in a table view; then set the field name type to "Hyperlink"

2) if you are going to have hyperlinks on a form then open up the form control and edit the properties, under the "Is this a hyperlink" change the setting to "yes". You will now have clickable hyperlinks.
