[rt-users] ClickableLinks in custom fields

[gordon at cryologic.com]

Thanks Torsten,

I had looked at this earlier and originally thought it wouldn't be 
useful for my application. However, after revisiting the idea, I see I 
can simply put in "file://///__CustomField__"  as the URL and users can 
put in their network file paths as the custom field value, to create a 
clickable link.
