Link won't stay set

Hi:

I am trying to set a link to an executable file that is in our ftp space. The link is as follows:

ftp://user.lighthouselegalsoftware.com:lugnut_lghthse@lighthouselegalsoftware.com/workstation9x_spell.exe

However, the VSD changes it to be http://user.lighthouselegalsoftware.com:80

How can I correct this?

Thanks in advance -

Regards

Hi Dave

I just checked VSD and that is correct. The Link dialog was not designed for that type of functionality. What you would need to use is the HTML Tool instead and add something like this:

<a href="ftp://user.lighthouselegalsoftware.com:lugnut_lghthse@lighthouselegalsoftware.com/workstation9x_spell.exe">workstation9x_spell.exe</a>
