Answer:
You can create that kind of column with Analysis Wizard, just select the attribute "Link Path" to be displayed. Of course after creating this kind of column you can modify the DXL code.

With our DOORS 8.2 installation we are using External links to trace to other external documents that provide additional compliance evidence to our requirements. However when I publish the requirements view to DOORSNet I notice that the link indicators are missing.

In order to workaround this problem I thought we could create a dxl column (attribute or layout) that contained a copy of the URL for the external link as it seems that these are displayed and navigable.

However I had a look at the dxl manual and I couldn't work out how to do it, seems like the "ExternaLink current" fucntion would do it but I can't get it to work.

Any ideas ?

Chris

Thanks Pekka, I just realised that too as I was doing something else !

It appears that the body(extlink) is not described in the DXL manual - nice !
