Re: Creating a link to a network file from a Calendar database?

That is correct, we do not want to create an attachment - just a link.

I have entered the link as described, and when I call up the reminder it 
is underlined in green and the Hotspot menu option is displayed, so I 
think it is recognizing it as a Hotspot.  However, I can't click on it. 
What am I missing?

Re: Creating a link to a network file from a Calendar database?






I don't think the request was for a file attachment in the Notes document, 

but a link to a file on the network.  If that's the case, we are doing 
that by creating a link in the format of 
"file://c:\FolderName\FileName.ext"

It's entered in the same manner that you can set up a web link in the 
format "http://www.lotus.com";

Hope that helps,
Patrick

Yes.  I just tried it.  In the descriptive part of the reminder, click on
the attach file icon or File --> Attach.

Hello group,

I am new to Domino development, so this may be a silly question....

I have a Calendar database.  When entering a new Reminder, we would like
to be able to enter a link to a file path and name (usually a Word doc
that exists on our network).  Therefore, when the Reminder is opened, we
can simply click on the file, and the file will be opened (in it's native
app - Word, Excel, etc, if possible).  Is this do-able?  If so, could
someone point me in the right direction?
