Launching Hyperlink Targets in their parent appplications

R

Ray Cleere

Hi,

Quick one here - using FP 2002 (10.6308.6626) SP3.

Is it possible to configure a hyperlink so that clicking on it will launch
the document within its parent application (e.g. MSWord, MSExcel etc.)
rather than within a browser window?

My main problem in having these documents open within the browser window is
that I am unable to save any changes to the various documents, with the
absence of the File | Save functionality of the parent app.

The web I'm working on is an Intranet within a secure corporate network:-
there are no 'visitors', just trusted employees, to whom full read/write
access is available for the documents in question.

Thanx in advance.

RayC.
