Mike,

I don't know how you are displaying the field contents but if it is in an HTML form but located on the local hard drive then your HTML would have an href tag followed by file:///and then the path.

Such as <a href="file:///C:\BILLS\F111504\A0015209.HTML">File description or name here</a>

I can't tell from your post just how you want to reference the file but in HTML this should work.

I'm trying to access a database on the Iseries that is a 1 field record.
Basically this file is made up of a URL(ie.
C:\BILLS\F111504\A0015209.HTML)
However, when I run this, it doesn't display as a URL.  Its just an
output field.  Is it possible to read these records and have them
display as a URL. I'm using a 'Relational Record List' currently.
The idea is that these are locations of specific spool files converted
to HTML and I want to give a user the ability to open the HTML page.
Thanks
