Getting hyperlink formula from field objects.

48 Views

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to extend the export to .pdf functionality in order to include hyperlinks. I have already ran some proof of concept programs, and I'm able to export to .pdf and add a hyperlink to a rectangular area of an existing .pdf document. The only thing left is to be able to pull the information regarding field location, size and hyperlink from the report.

So, that's my question; How do I loop through the fields of an existing crystal report, check for hyperlink formula field, then get the link text/field position and size?

I know that I'm asking for a lot here... I don't need full code samples, just some hints where to start... for example:

- Where do I find the collection of generated data field objects?

- Where do I find the hyperlink text on those objects?

Thanks, in advance, for any help that you may be able to offer.
