Link to DB form via anchor

[Bill H]

Is it possible to link directly to a DB form from a link? I'm
thinking of placing some shortcuts on a menu form to link to other
major modules within our application. Is this possible?

Thanks,

Bill,

Yes, it is possible, but if you are using Windows Authentication then
the user will be prompted to enter user/password.

You can setup the link so that the url include the formname and then
use DBW3CQSTRING to evaluate the url string and PROCESS.STACK the
formname. For example, the link maybe:

www.mysite.com/db/webmain.asp?form=myform

Remember, anything after the "?" DB does not evaluate. Its up to you
to decide what to do with it.

I hope this helps,

Rick
