I would like to have a field in my form which has a link to a folder on a
network drive. The link will alter for each record (e.g. i:\shared\1234 on
one field, i:\shared\1235 in the next) and be pasted into the field maually
by the user.
Next to the text field I would like a button which would open the address in
the field thus opening the pertaining folder on the network.

Is this possible and without too much coding? Presume it can work like a ULR?
 
Please disregard this post - I have solved the problem

Simply created a new field in my table that is a Hyperlink field - then once
the user has added the ULR to the field they can click it to open the
pertaining folder...
