Add a URL without using a button

All, Im sure this is simple..

How can I add a URL to a qvw without using a Button?

(e.g. add http://www.google.com into the qvw so its clickable)

Bloody Hell this is killing me!!

Cheers

James,

If you're using QlikView 9, you can create links in table charts using the following expression:


='Display Text'&'<URL>'&'http://www.example.com/'


AFAIK, you can't do this with a text object, I tried a few ways and couldn't get it to work.

Also, you can use this to do Google searches on your data, e.g.


='Search Google for this Company'&'<URL>'&'http://www.google.com/search?q='&Company


I've attached a QVW for your reference, and I hope this helps!
