Issue with DOCPROPERTY field inside LINK field
Hello,
I have some Documents including LINK fields to Excelfiles. To avoid the problem with absolute paths I followed Cindy Meisters tips to use a DOCPROPERTY field inside the LINK field and a custom property containing the directory of the file. This works fine however there is an issue. When I refresh the LINK field, my DOCPROPERTY field is replaced with a string containing the content of my custom property. So I loose my dynamic behavior. Perhaps someone knows the problem and could help me. I also hope Cindy is finding my post. She seems to use this methode very often so I'm sure she was confronted with this problem to. Best regards, Sven |

Issue with DOCPROPERTY field inside LINK field
with the cursor somewhere between the "...", hit SHIFT-F9 (just to see
that the field is indeed gone (that's what I meant in the German forum :-)). I will answer youn in the german forum to well it is a little bit confusing... I tried it with shif+f9 and he showed me the field in one of two link fields... the text I get from the DOCPROPERTY field was inside some greyed brackets after pressing undo and refreshing again it worked for none of them it is really frustating |
