It would be great if hyperlinks could be activated within DW; alone or as a new column type.

You can do that if you edit a dwar file with a text editor. You need to add column properties like the these (taken from the DataWarrior file after retrieving all wikipedia compounds) into the column properties section:

<column properties>
...
<columnName="Compound Name">
<columnProperty="lookupCount 1">
<columnProperty="lookupName0 Wikipedia Entry">
<columnProperty="lookupURL0 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%s">
</column properties>

This means the following: The column with the name 'Compound Name' gets three column properties:
lookupCount<TAB>1: there is one URL lookup
lookupName0<TAB>Wikipedia Entry: the name of this lookup (index=0) is 'Wikipedia Entry'
lookupURL0<TAB>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%s: the URL for every cell of this column (also here is lookup index=0) is the given one, where '%s' is automatically replaced by the cell content. If you wanted to have the entire URL in the cell, then the given URL should be simply '%s'.

Hope I could explain it in an understandable manner, Thomas

thanks Thomas. How hard would it be to add "Hyperlink" as a column type (when adding a column) such that links would be active when in this column?

that should be possible without a lot of effort. I will experiment...

Very cool. I just saw this. I created a weblink column and put in a link -- but I cannot get it to activate when I click on it.

a right mouse click of the link, followed by selecting 'open ... in web browser' should do it.
A single click just selects the cell, a double click allows to edit the cell's content.

thanks. It opens with Firefox (even though Google is set as my default browser), which causes an error. It then proceeds to open with Google, which works. Is there a way to get DW to use Google the first time?

which OS do you use? Except for Linux, where it explicitly opens Firefox, it should open the default browser. If you say Google, do you mean Crome or Cromium?
