[John Dirks Jr]

For those of you that produce and deliver reports via computer, do you ever insert hyperlinks into the report to direct the reader to further explanation or information?

Sometimes.

- Jim Katen, Oregon

I do that regularly.

[randynavarro]

Yes.

EPA - asbestos, lead and mold stuff

Caoimhín P. Connell's site - reasonable info. about mold

Dan Friedman's site, Inspect-NY - aluminum wiring, FPE panels

Weyerhaeuser or LP - class action lawsuit stuff (BTW, can anybody spell Weyerhaueser correctly? Without spell-checker?)

There's probably more, I just can't think of them right now.

I had to add it to my dictionary as well. BTW, you spelled it correctly the first time.

I have links on my website to the places I like to to send clients. That way I can direct them to me for further info. It builds traffic and I can always remember my URL.

Good tip Chad. That's something I plan to do when I get my website up.

BTW, I need to add Fabry to my spell checker. It keeps suggesting that I replace it with 'fairy'. [:-slaphap I always click 'ignore', but one of these days...

I try to use them whenever possible when I suspect that whoever may be called to correct a defect may not realize it is a defect, for example:

Yes. Most often in new construction to back up my findings with manufacturers' installation instructions. I am in the process of building a page like Chad has, for the same reasons.

Each of my reports has 1 to as many as 4 links to useful information. The links are often to web sites describing specific, proper repair methods for an issue identified in the report.
