E-mail links to Outlook in Access fields

[NES]

In MS Word, if you type an email address, it becomes a link automatically. If
you click on that link, it opens Outlook with a new message, ready to create
and send.

I have a field in an Access form (Text Field) for email addresses, and I
would like to have the same functionality. I tried changing the field to a
hyperlink, but it took me to the web instead.

Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance.

in Butler do you live?
