Hi I hope someone can help me - I am new to codecharge, getting on ok, but stuck in trying to get a word document to load from a link.
in frontpage it is easy and a link address of file:///e:/test.doc will run word.
In codecharge, creating a link on a grid will get me the url of file:///e:/test.doc but on clicking it the link nothing happens!
The href diaglogue contains the following:
<a href="{doc_location}?" id="NewRecord1Link3">View/Print</a> with no parameters set.
What am I doing wrong??

You need to retrieve the value for the link control from your database.
Edit your link control, select source as database and select tyhe field that contains the full path & Filename for your MS document

Thanks for that I can now
- create a link that successfully views a .doc in 'live mode' in codecharge
- but when published clinking the link has no action.
It is not codecharge but my iis setup, as in frontpage exactly the same thing happens; can view the page in preview, or using a web address of c:\inetpub\wwroot\test\index.html but if I try \\localhost\test it is inactive.
I have been into the properties page of both web nodes, and in customised mime types the 'registered types box' is empty; I have added application/msword for types of doc to no avail.
I have spent two days googling this rather than troubling you againto see if I can find an answer with no joy.. can you help with this strange problem?
I have tried on another computer and get the same result! One running xp and one vista.
Desperate...
