Embedding Hyperlinks

Visual FoxPro editors support embedding and activating hyperlinks. When you include a valid hyperlink, Visual FoxPro applies hyperlink attributes to the hyperlink text.

If hyperlinks are activated in the Options Dialog Box or by setting the EditorOptions property, a hyperlink will be displayed in your editor with the typical underline visual cue of a hyperlink in HTML. The hyperlink termination character is a space, so if you have spaces in your path you must replace them with %20. For example, https://servername/program files/my folder must be written https://servername/program%20files/my%20folder.

By default, you need to CTRL + click to follow a link. The EditorOptions property lets you change the default so that simple clicking will follow the link. The following table describes the valid protocols.
