Is there a way to set my hyperlink field so that when an entry is made it is
always recognized as an e-mail entry?  Currently, when data is entered into
this field from my form it's default is to recognize it as an http://
address.  Right now we enter the e-mail address and then open the hyperlink,
change it to an e-mail address and enter the subject line.  

I was checking around this discussion board and found a recommendation for
changing the field to 'text' and putting in an Event code, but I have no
experience with this.  Would that erase or change the data that's already
stored?  What kind of event code would be used?

Thanks for your help.

if you add mailto: in from of the email addresses it should resolve your
problem\

FYI from what I've hear this problem has been resolve in Access 2007.
