PS2007 : Hyperlink in a Project Center view

[Alexander Burton \(alexb\)]

Hi,

I am trying to incorporate a hyperlink into a project center view. Basically
I have a project enterprise text field that I am using to store a hyperlink
to another web site of the form http://www.blah.com. The hyperlink renders
perfectly in the project center view, but when I click on it, I get an
ActiveXViewPart.htc Unspecified Error.

I figure the problem is due to the hyperlink being within the ActiveX
control for the project center. Any ideas how I can get this to work? Or if
it's even possible?

Thanks,


Alex.

Hi Alex,
the ActiveX component is a black box as you know I have just tried it as
well mate, and get the same error. I dont think this is possible.
Sorry mate

The one field that I know works for certain in PC views is the HREF local
field in Project. You want to set this value on the Project Summary task
(Line 0).

Great! Too bad there's only *one* of these.

I was just playing around with this a bit more.

It seems you can use an enterprise field to store a URL, BUT, you need to
put the URL in at the Project Summary task level (Task 0). So in theory you
can have many different url's stored.

Are you using a recent build, as I recall in some earlier builds they
wouldn't respond to a click-through. If it's working now, that's great.
