Default Can an action appear as a hotlink? - 07-01-2003 , 03:39 PM






I've created a cube with a dimension called project in which I have
set up an action to open a link giving details on the project. I'm
using the Office XP Web component pivottable control in a web page to
display the cube. I followed the "actions" example in the Office XP
Web Component Toolpack installed on my machine.

The action works fine as I can right click on the project dimension
and browse to the project. What I would like is to have the project
dimension show up as a hotlink and be able to click on it to open the
project detail. I think the right click is somewhat non-intuitive and
a hotlink would be better. Is this possible?

Thanks for you help.

One big difficulty in doing this is that to tell if you have an action on a
member you have to do a schema rowset query for just that member. This
works well on a pop-up menu, but if you need to show all the hyperlinks at
once you will have a big performance concern when many members are displayed
on the axes of the tabe.
