I have a need to create a hyperlink in a CR 2008 report that when exported to excel will allow the user to use the hyperlink in the excel document.  The hyperlink will have to be dynamic and change based on what job positions the user has access to view.   The hyperlink works when exporting to pdf but not when I export to excel.  Any suggestions or workarounds.

Unfortunately, there is very little control over the Excel export from Crystal - I don't believe it will set up a working hyperlink from an export.
