Default Act! to FM8 question 4...URLs with field data - 09-28-2005 , 12:52 PM






Topic- using fields in URLs to get internet information, either into a new
default browser window, or into FM itself.

In Act!, you can decipher how various web mapping services, or stock quote
service etc compose their urls for results, then copy that url and insert
fields to let you get per-contact info. i.e.- stick quote for current
contacts company, map to contact's address, etc.

How is this done in FM8? The help file is sparse.

Thanks!
