I want to create active links to web addresses stored in my Access database and returned on the detail page of a Master/Detail set. The code below returns the correct entry from the database field - but I can't seem to make it an active link.

<%=(rsNameMasterDetail.Fields.Item("Link").Value)%>

any help would be appreciated!
thanks,
emyers

Just what I was looking for! Thanks a lot.
On the same basis, a simple email link from a database field would be :

<td><a href="mailto:<%=(Recordset1.Fields.Item("emailAddress").Value)%>"><%=(Recordset1.Fields.Item("emailAddress").Value)%></a></td>
