Anchor HRef Links in Reports?

Hey folks,

I'm building a new application in Sesame that is much simpler than our work application, but requires me to do a bunch of things I've never done before ... so, help please?

I am building a static report that I have been requested to add HTML anchor links to, which I figured out (I have a group header break on alphabetical letter changes with the following code):

Code
Select All
CAPBREAK = "<a href=" + @chr(34) + "#" + @left(LE4,1) + @chr(34) + ">" + @left(LE4,1) + "</a>"


Now in the header, I need to create hyperlinks to jump to the different letters of the alphabet … but to do that I need to know the exact name of the report that has been created.  Is there a way to call on that, or specifically set the report name?  I'm doing this through the report buider, not @PrintAReport …

Thanks!

I'm a bit lost here Blair. Why do you need the report name?

What you are creating there are links to an ID in the same report. Which is what you need to do in the Report Header but you can just hardcode the 26 that you need. ex:
Code
Select All
<a href="#A">A</a>
<a href="#B">B</a>
<a href="#C">C</a>


Then in your Group Header you want to make the anchors, something like
Code
Select All
CAPBREAK = "<h2 id=" + @chr(34) + @left(LE4,1) + @chr(34) + ">" + @left(LE4,1) + "</h2>"
