I would like it if CC was able to link to pages not created with codecharge. Right now I need to use custom code to do this, or make a really really long string in the menu's caption.
There are several reasons that I don't want to put this in custom code like this :
fldBlah = "text" & fldBlah & "text"
which include : ease of maintenance, dynamic creation of the links, fields change often, and a few others.
I think this would be a nice addition to CC. Just a little box next to 'page link' that let me type in the name of a file. This, coupled with the ability to pass out parameters that had nothing to do with the DB (in output parameters) would be very powerful.

Andrew,
There are two ways I have worked around this problem.
(I am using ASP)
1)I have a ASP page created outside of CC.
Assuming it is in same directory as my cc generated ASP pages.
I would just create a page within CC with same name but mark it as "do not generate", then I can select it in the "page link"
2)If it is a non-asp page, I would create a new page in CC and in the open event...response.redirect("to where ever....")
and then in the "Page Link" link to this new page in CC.
As far as output parameters, you could create addition fields using custom SQL
with the parameter value
Select
UserID,
Name,
Birthdate,
'ABC' as Link1
from tbUSER
Then in the URL Page Link file, Link1 would be available
as an output parameter with the value of "ABC"
These suggestions may not work in you case but something to consider.
