I have a drawing with hundreds of points and I would like to hyperlink a point to a Access 2007 file and would like the link to open a specific form and go to specific record. Please help.  If there's any way of doing this by just addin to the url it would be easiest.

Have you tried and failed or haven't you even tried it yet?  Just curious before I go off on a search for an answer to your problem.  I am under the impression that a hyperlink can't be quite that specific.  Maybe I am wrong.  I would like to find out too.

I have tried.  I've also done some searching over the internet, which has led me no where.  If you were linking to a PDF its possible for the hyperlink to go to a specific page i using #page=2 after the flile name in the hyperlink.  I don't see why there shouldn't be a way to add something to open a form in access?  If you find any answers please share.

Actually I am working in MS Access at this very moment so I could experiment.  I'll post back and let you know what I did or did not accomplish.

My test failed to do anything more than open Access and the mdb file I specified.  It did not open a table or a form.You might try asking your question at the AutoDesk Discussion Forums.John Connor2011-03-18 14:48:48
