    Default Help with Hyperlink Text

    Have received great help here and hopefully someone can provide it again

    Have made a text box with 7 sub-categories. In each of the categories I want
    one word "hot" and to jump to a Marker. Laid it all out and all 7 "links" are
    jumping to the same Marker........not the one that I am picking in the
    drop-down list

    I am thinking I need to break up this paragraph so each of the sub-categories
    is on its' own channel in the score so that the "hot" word will point to the
    right Marker. Am I correct with this??

    Before I do a lot of unnecessary work I would like to know if this is possible
    as I think it can be done, and if not, how can I get 7 different words to jump
    to 7 different markers? Am coming very close to making them either .gifs or
    ..jpgs and just putting them in the list

    Thank you in advance for your help. Great info here

    Default Re: Help with Hyperlink Text

    If you are using the built in text member hyperlink setup, you just have
    to preset a unique tagString for each link when setting them up using
    the text inspector.

    Then in your handler

    on hyperlinkClicked me, data, range
    put "linked "& data -- out to message window
    end hyperlinkClicked


    the data returned will be the unique tagString
