Word Report email address as Hyperlinks

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Hein Kruger 629
Hi,
We added Company Email as a CompanyEmail_Url to the customer statement. 
All is looking good, The Email Address is shown as a hyperlink. 

Here lies the problem. The Hyperlink adds /Http/ infront of the email address. This causes the email address to be seen as a website instead of an email address. 
How can I modify the XML Hyperlink to be seen as an email address instead of a website?
See example below, we added sample@gmail.com  in the company information table. We can see it as output on the word report. If we hover over it it. We can see the URL link is not correct.
If I add the email address manually into the report it works correctly by opening the email window and adding the email address to the CC. 


 


 
Thanks in advance

    Hello Hein,
     
    Adding _Url to the dataset will turns it into an URL and not a mailto.
    If you want the email to look like a hyperlink, maybe you can try formatting it instead. I am not sure if there are better way.
     
    Anyway, you can take a look at the standard report 1303 draft invoice.
