I'm very new to CodeCharge Studio and have what I hope is a simple question.

I have a record form which display a record and one of the fields is "BegBates". I would like to add a "link" where the user can press a "button" or "link" of some type which will "open" a PDF file named BegBates.PDF stored in a /pdf directory on the server.

I assume that I should use either an imagelink or link button, but I'm not sure how/where to append the .PDF extension, etc.

ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

You could probably use a Label as then you'd have full control over the label's content.
Take a look at this example to get the idea:
http://docs.codecharge.com/studio/html/QuickStart/Creat...rTextColor.html
http://docs.codecharge.com/studio/html/QuickStart/Creat...FieldValue.html

In your case you could probably use such code:

FormName.LabelName.Value = "<a href=""" & FormName.LabelName.Value & ".pdf"">" & FormName.LabelName.Value & ".pdf</a"
