SSRS 2005 make an email address in a text box when clicked open a new email to that person

Is it possible to format a text box so that the contents become a hot link to create an email to the address specified in that text box?Nick Ryan SQL Server Developer OnePath (NZ) Lts

If using ReportBuilder: 1. Right click textbox and click "TextBox Properties" 2. Click "Action" 3. Select "Go to URL" 4. Enter "mailto:myemailaddress.com?subject=mysubject 5. Click OK You may also wish to put in some blue underlined text so that the user has something to click on.

Thanks. Easy, really. Only small difference for my situation is: 4. Enter ="mailto:" + Fields!EmailAddress.Value. Cheers, NickNick Ryan SQL Server Developer OnePath (NZ) Lts
