This is the last time I'll say this: NO. I said it 3 times already.
But the question I'm asking has changed! Originally I was asking whether it's possible to combine two fields by means of a query to create a displaytext hyperlink. Now I'm asking whether it's advisable to enter displaytext hyperlinks into a table. Despite what you say, I know it's possible to do this, because I've done it; and I've successfully exported the data to an HTML document containing the hyperlinks. Here's what I entered into the table, in a field with the Data Type 'Hyperlink':
Google#http://www.google.co.uk/
And here's what came out in the HTML document:
<A HREF="http://www.google.co.uk/">Google</A>
What I'm trying to find out now is whether I'm storing up any problems for myself in having a field with the Data Type 'Hyperlink' in a table (just as I was warned I would be if I had a field with the Data Type 'Lookup').

YES.
Then please tell me how! If it doesn't work, so be it. But at the moment I can't even work out what I have to do – what code to write or where to stick it.
