I have a SQL table created with populated data where one
column is actually a hyperlink address. But my DBA says
that the column must be a varchar format - no choice.

When I use FP SQL to do a query against the database, the
column returns with the link data but it does not appear
on the results table as a hyperlink, just as raw data.

How can I modify the format of the results table to
actually create a hyperlink with the data returned?

Thanks

Click to expand...

1. Open the page in FrontPage.
2. Right-click the column that displays the URL data,
and choose Database Column Value Properties
3. Select Column Value Contains HTML and Display Hyperlink.
