I have a database for doing product inspections during production. I have
a table of products that includes several fields for hyperlinks to Work
Instructions, Pictures, Drawings, Specifications, etc.
The user can do their inspection, led step by step by the computer, and
can jump to the work instructions, specifications for packaging or raw
materials, Drawings, or whatever they need by pressing the buttons on the
form.
The button on the form activates the following piece of code, referencing
the field containing the appropriate hyperlink for that product.
Private Sub PBWI_Click()
If Len(Me.WILink.Hyperlink.Address) > 0 Then
Me.WILink.Hyperlink.Follow
Else
DoCmd.Beep
MsgBox "Work Instruction not available. See your Supervisor or
Quality Inspector."
End If
End Sub
Clicking this button on Win9X machines works fine. Clicking the button on
a Win2K machine produces the following error.
Run-time error '-2147221008 (800401f0)':
Method 'Follow' of object '_Hyperlink' failed
Who can tell me how to make hyperlinks work in Office 97 on Windows 2000?
Thanks in advance,
