    Hi @Anonymous ,

    If that is a Gallery (you cannot use a Data Table here, put a HTML Text box inside it with (replace with your values)

    "<a href=" & ThisItem.YourURL & ">" & ThisItem.YourLinkName & "</a>"

    hi WarrenBelz

    it is not a data table, it is a form. I inserted a html and used your formula but it doesn't work 😞

    Hi @Anonymous ,

    In a Form, that will only work in Edit Mode (there is no way of having an active control in View Mode) - is that what you are experiencing ?

    hi WarrenBelz

    I read you last post,  this is not a Gallery , the detailed screen displays a form. I created a label and in the OnSelect property i entered the following function Launch(MyUrl) but the link is still not clickable.

     

    any idea how i could do this link, (even in the edit mode of the form)?

     

     

    thanks

    Hi @Anonymous ,
    As I mentioned, a HTML Text box with

    "<a href='https://geodis.sharepoint.com/sites/hq-Power-Apps-and-Power-Automate-commun/DocumentationCatalog/Forms/ALLItems.aspx'>Link to documentation</a>"

    will work in Edit Mode
