Hi John
Shouldn't be too hard to pass a URL.
Add a Label to any form and set its "hyperlink" property to say...
http://paypal.com/
But what I think you are asking is to pass the credentials and the item ID
as well - yes?
If this is what you are asking - That is a little trickier though may be
achievable using escape strings (I think that's the jargon).
But it seems unlikely using credentials in an escape string would be
available on PayPal's site.
Passing the ItemID and building the URL from that should be achievable
though.
Not 100% sure on where you retrieve it though.
Click on an item you want to pay for and see what the common elements in the
URL are and see if that can be 'built' upon.
Darren

Subject: [AccessD] Paypal in Access

Is it possible to embed the paypal button directly into a Microsoft Access
form so that clicking the button causes the user to be taken to the PayPal
payment page?
