Hi Everyone,
My goal is to have a grid with an Icon on every row. That icon will be a
dynamic URL (per record) which is a pdf document that has as a name the
formatted id of the table being displayed. IOW, record 1 in the grid will
have an id of 4567. The PDF file name that I want to load when the icon is
press is "00004567.pdf" and is located in a virtual directory on my IIS
called "Documents".
I was able to create the Icon on every row that has a static URL, now I need
to complete the cycle. I added:
fldicon = "<a href=http://www.codecharge.com><img border=0
src=openfold.gif width=30 height=30></a>"
in the Before Show event in the Grid form.
Not knowing HTML to much and even less of ASP (although learning in a
hurry<g>) I'm guessing that the code to extract the ID (which is being
displayed in the Grid) and formatted should be done in ASP.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

As you already know the id of the record you are working on, you can use
this to define the document you want to link to:
docname = "0000" & CStr(fldID) & ".pdf"
where fldID is the primary key of your record.
Then construct your document variable:
fldicon = "<a href='http://www.codecharge.com/pathtodoc/" & docname &
"'><img border=0
> src=openfold.gif width=30 height=30></a>"
Hope this helps
