Since version 2.4.2 the DBM has a submask which contains only one control: an Internet Explorer browser control. This can be used to display any additional data, e.g. from another database. The "Navigate" function of the browser is called with a string which can be set per table with this parameter. There are some special "variables" which can be used when specifying this string. The DBM will replace them with a real value before the browser sees the string. The following variables are defined: [COMPUTER] The DigaSystem station name, [UID] The DigaSystem user name, [DSN] The ODBC data source name for the entry, [TABLE] The physical table name for the entry, [ALIAS] The alias name of the table, [REFNR] The reference number of the entry, [FILENAME] The filename of the primary media file, [MEDIADIR] The media directory assigned to the table. Here is an example: "http://intern.davidsystems.com/AdditionalDigasData?database=[DSN]&table=[TABLE]&refnr=[REFNR]"
