EDIT // remove hyperlink is fixed in Version 0.9.26Pre-Rel26 build 2014-05-14 17:02:40 (thanks Pierre)
 
I have a link added to some text within the item field. I'm not sure how the link was created -
it uses the format {a href=[FileFullName]>README_GENERAL.lnk</a} (I changed brackets at ends so it hopefully will display here).
It is a shortcut link.
 
I want to change it to another file, so I thought it easiest to delete hyperlink and replace with new one:
I tried 'remove hyperlink' in the item menu. Nothing happens.
I tried deleting values in the Properties pane:
Problem is I'm unable to delete FileFullName - if I click in the field (in PP) it acts as a link - if I tab into the field and press delete, nothing happens.

I *am* able to delete FileName, FilePath, and am able to untick FileRef.
 
Any tips on how to do this?
Thanks!
Tom

Hi Tom,
 
I'm fixing the Remove Hyperlink command which failed in certain circumstances.
 
However, you don't need to use this command as your hyperlink is a smart link which links to the FileFullName field. Simply change the file name parameters and the link will be updated.
 
Now, FileFullName is a smart field which combines FilePath and FileName. Update these two fields to point to the new file.
 
HTH !

I'd forgotten that - is it not odd though, that FileFullName holds the file path, in spite of the other two fields having being deleted? But I guess that will get sorted when you fix the Remove Hyperlink command..

A refresh issue. If you changed item and came back to that item, the FileFullName would be updated.
