Opening a database to the browser

Hi,

I want my users to click on a database and it will immediately direct them to an external URL. Is this possible?

I have tried attaching a html file to the ABout document and select the option “Lauch first attachment in the About Document” but this is not good enough as the URL address shown on the browser points to a temp file in the local drive.

Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks

Subject: Yes, it is possible.

I don’t understand why you want to do it, but you should look at the URLOpen method of the NotesUIWorspace class.

You put the code in the database script. I would put it in the PostOpen event, that way you can also close the database if you like.
