I have a drawing with numerous objects connected to a database. Is there a way to attach hyperlinks to many objects using a connected database. For instance, if I have a link field in the database with the hyperlink path, can I generate a link for each object based upon the database link, like generating labels but instead it is a hyperlink. This will save me from having to link each object manually.

My hyperlinks work great however, I made a print screen & pasted for a visual reference to hyperlink. They can only be viewed from the machine I captured them on. Is there a way to make these thumbnails.dib viewable across my network for co-workers?

Erhan,

I am using AutoCAD Map 2007 to create drawings with several hyperlinks in each drawing. Each hyperlink opens a PDF. After attaching the hyperlinks I create a DWF of the drawing and view it in the DWF Viewer version 7.

When I open the hyperlinks from the drawing the PDF opens in Acrobat. When I open the same hyperlinks from the DWF the PDF opens in an Internet Explorer window.

Is there a way to have the PDF open in Acrobat (instead of IE) from the hyperlink in the DWF?

Thanks,

Pat

Hello Erhan

I work in Autocad 2005 and need to put a hyperlink from an object on my drawing to a .pdf document , and to open this pdf at a given page.

I tryed out this:

"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" "/A" " page=3=OpenActions" "C:\Documents and Settings\myname\catalogue.pdf"

but always get an error
"The system cannot find the path specified"

However when I run this line from the Windows Run menu, it works good.

Sincerely

Excuse me my English is poor. I have a problem in CAD please help me. "I cannot attach more than one link to an object"
I Create database access and connect in auto cad by dbconnect and create template & many label, but I can not assign many label to one object. auto cad allow you attach one label to a object.

How I want attach multi label to a object and change labels value by changing Object unique field value LINK Manager!!!!
Please help me.
Sincerely
Amin Heydarpour

Hi,
You can use DWF format. Use DWFOUT command to do this.

Sir,
I'm using the hyperlink facility in CAD
This concept works on two different dwg files.
But my problem is I want to link the object with another object within the "same drawing file".
Means if I click the object, the linked object should appeare on my screen (preferably in center of screen) with same zoom level.

Is it possible? If yes can u please elaborate the procedure.

Thanks
