hyperlink

T

Turf

I am currently creating a database. What im having problems with is I have a
field on a form that the user will enter a number of a previously scanned
document that is saved on our network share drive (G Drive) when i loose
focus I would like to create the hyperlink in the second field. Now for the
problem. I cannot create the correct hyperlink.

I am currently generating a hyperlink to a file located at the
following directory G:Call CenterAPPAPP_2006APP*001 based on a
numberical value that in entered in on a form.

The problem im encountering is that the network directory that im generating
the
link to has several changing variables that need to be
taken into account


G:Call CenterAPPAPP_2006/APP*001 - the year 2006 changes every year. So
come the year 2007 the link needs to change to that.


In addition the APP*001 - The * (astrick) represents a numberical value
(starting at zero) that changes 1 number every 999 records (First folder
would be 0001; second folder would be APP1001 and so on) Each time the folder
name changes (APP0001 to APP1001) the file name entered in on the original
for will change back to 1 and start over. The last 3 digets in the APP*001
sequence entered above is the number the user will be entering that
represents the scanned file name. Currently this is the code that I am using
and it will not take into consideration the changing variables


Private Sub File_Scan_Name_GotFocus()
Scanned_Contract.Text = "G:Call CenterAPPAPP_2006APP" &
Left(File_Scan_Name.Value, 1) & "001APP" & Right("0000" &
File_Scan_Name.Value, 3) & ".tif"
End Sub

I know this is not correct and have drawn a blank on how to actually work
this
problem. Can someone help me out with this there has got to be an easier way.

Help Please
