Hyperlinking in ArcExplorer?

[AdrieBorman1]

Hi Everyone

I would like to be able to click on a feature on the map and have the desired fields for that feature "popup."
Then, one of the fields that pops up would have the link to the folder containing documents for that feature and you could just click on that link if you want to see the documents (hyperlink). Any thoughts or suggestions will be
appreciated.  Many thanks.  Adrie

You need ArcMap

Hi Dan

Thank you for replying.

This is what I've done, but the link is not working.

See attached image, with ref to DOC_LINK field

Using a shapefile in ArcGIS Explorer Desktop your attribute would need to look like this for a local file.

file:///C:/Users/Public/Documents/note.txt

and you would have to specify it the layer properties.

The popup would then show the file in the popup window.

I presume that the OP is asking for more than that simple functionality.
