Links to record details

Question

Hi!
Do you know a place where I could find the statements needed in order to insert links to record details from each type of report?
Form the moment I managed to find the statement that helps the users navigate to Account details from an Account report page, but I'd like to be able to do the same for the other record types as well. As far as I understood, there is a differet statement for each record type.
Thank you in advance,
Delora

Hi Delora,
To use ActionLinks, do the following:
- Arrange your columns such that the "link field" is to the left of the record "id" field.
- Go to the Style tab of the link field column properties and check "use custom CSS Class" and enter ActionLink
- On the Data Format tab, check "Override Default Data Format", and treat text as "Custom Text Format"
- In the Custom Text Format box, enter:
@[html]" (left angle bracket) span onClick=\"javascript:LinkOccam (this, ‘XXX’);\"(right angle bracket)"@"(left angle bracket)/span(right angle bracket)"
Where 'XXX' is replaced by the words:
- account
- opportunity
- contact
- service
- lead
- campaign
Those are all the record types supported natively through ActionLink.
Good luck!
