Fetch command in URL

Richard_Miklauzic_(novnoradmin_-_(deleted))

I would like to have a URL on a web page within Livelink so when a user selects it an excel sheet would be fetched automatically.Fetching an item normaly works by selecting 'Fetch' from the 'Function' menu next to the item.How or from where can I get the right command that I can use in URLs?Any help is appreciated!Thanks,Richard

Try ...?func=doc.Fetch&nodeid=453174 where nodeid is of course the id of the excel doc you want to fetch.

Is this something that you want to do for all documents or just for one mimetype (Excel)?Our user base is primarily Windows and we found that it was better to have users fetch documents to view locally than to use the VIEW action. We patched the Livelink server to make FETCH the default action for all documents and VIEW only accessed through the function menu.
