I understan the DOORS email is "Plain Text". But I would want the DOORS object URLs to appear as hyperlinks in outlook. I am struggling and building a DXL code to display Object url as hyperlink. Did anyone tried already? Is there any easiest way to do that? Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Have you tried:
<a href=\"" strDOORSURL "\"> " identifier(obj) "</a>" Also, you can create your own message in Outlook using DXL and OLE, instead of using the DOORS server to send email. ------------------------- Kevin Murphy http://www.baselinesinc.com |

Kevin, do yo know if there's a way to configure Outlook such that it automatically makes DOORS URLs into clickable links?

Justin,
It doesn't appear to be able to do that without customization. It's very strange, you can type in some standards like this: ftp:// http:// news:// and even gopher:// GOPHER! And my outlook (2003) will convert it to a hyperlink. You would think that just seeing :// would do the trick, but that's not the case. In my spare time I'll see if I can figure out a fix. ------------------------- Kevin Murphy http://www.baselinesinc.com |

Murugaraj,
I need to know if you're sending HTML mail or not. I assume you're sending it through the server, and the server sends out plain text email. I think if you can, you should connect to Outlook via OLE. Since you are in GE too, you can send me the code outside of this forum and i'll be happy to take a look. You can find me in the address book under energy, non-ge. ------------------------- Kevin Murphy http://www.baselinesinc.com |

Kevin, do yo know if there's a way to configure Outlook such that it automatically makes DOORS URLs into clickable links? Justin, I don't think this can be done automatically like Outlook does it, but I know it could be programmed and parsed if you are using Word as your editor. The thing is I don't work in an environment that uses a consistant version of MS Office, so I don't have a suitable environment in which to test a solution. If you know any VB, here's a hint: Put your VBA code in "ThisOutlookSession" into the Item_Send event. ------------------------- Kevin Murphy http://www.baselinesinc.com |

I ran your code into my instance, But it didn't help me. Let me explain my problem here.
Here I attached my code: If the option status has been changed, It should send email to the mentioned address ( Presently email id is hard coded here - Just for testing purpose ). The Output:- The following is a notification message from DOORS - please do not reply as it was sent from an unattended mailbox. *************************************************** A new option was added to option list. Please login DOORS and create corresponding product description. OBJECT ID: 2760 Short Description: MU jumper cable OBJECT URL: doors://3.205.206.183:36677/?version=1,prodID=0,dbid=485b98e857774672,container=00000101,object=2760,view=00000034 The highlighted URL is the TEXT, Its not a Hyperlink. So now I manually need to copy this to IE and need to run this to view the module. But I want this to be display as hyperlink in the Outlook itself. Can you help me. I am expecting like this: doors://3.205.206.183:36677/?version=1,prodID=0,dbid=485b98e857774672,container=00000101,object=2760,view=00000034 |

Hi Murugaraj,
if I had read your question carefully - I should know, that my answer will not solve your problem. ![]() You are using doors internal function: sendEMailNotification or sendEMailMessage These functions are not able to send anything else than plain text. So there is no possebilty to insert url as hyperlink in this text. Sorry, Greetings Reik ------------------------- Evosoft GmbH for Siemens Industry Sector Berlin, Germany |
