Thank you Rob, that is interesting but not sure it will work for me...

Hello Rob,

That sounds like a good work around for the same issue but for my problem the environment variable is stored in each user's mailbox database for the server they need to connect to and this can change.  So I need the email message bodies in their mailbox databases to have the URL link with the computed formula.  This way every time they click the link it recomputes the correct link before making the connection to the correct address.  This will allow it to continue working if the address changes.

I appreciate the idea and might be something to consider using in the future if a slightly different scenario.

Thank you,

Larry

Why won't Rich's solution work?
The formula would be a computed for display, which means it's calculated when displayed, Rich's solution doesn't hard code the results of the formula.  It copies a Rich Text Field with the computed for Display formula in it.

The way I have approached this in the past, is to actually use NotesDXL from within Lotusscript, that way the RichText content body was modifiable by search and replace within Lotusscript. This is the code that got me started doing it that way http://www.nsftools.com/tips/NotesTips.htm#richtextbutton
