Hyperlink in Crystal Reports opens a new browser window

[ericwassberg]

Hi There! I have created some reports in Crystal Reports 9 for a company
running CRM 1.2. Within the reports I can add a hyperlink by selecting
“format field” – choosing the “hyperlink” tab – clicking the formula button
(x-2) and then inserting the hyperlink in the formula pane. An example is
‘http://crm/sfa/leads/edit.aspx?id=’&{lead.leadid} this will open a lead that
is listed in the report.

My problem is it opens the lead in the crystal report viewer window. I
would like it to open in a new window. I have done some research and found
some javascript help, but no examples that I can get to function correctly.
I also read something about a viewer reg key fix, but I would really like to
be able to do this from within the report. Thanks in advance….. eric

Thanks for the reply. It seems like it should be easy... hope to hear from
others for both of our sakes..... eric

I've looked for this too. From what I have learned, this is available in
Crystal 10, which isn't supported in CRM 1.2, unfortunately. I've simply
resorted to instructing users to right click links and select "Open in New
Window" :(

Hi,
Add "target = new;" to the end of the link
Like in the example below :
'http://crmsrv01-nmp/SFA/accts/edit.aspx?id={' &
{v_AccountsReport_All2_Rev.AccountId} + '}"target = new;"'

Inna.
