OMG. I did it and it works like an absolute charm. Thank you so much.

I jumped the gun for a change; in UR you can only insert hyperlinks from RTF docs to items in the tree. No hyperlinks are available from pdf or txt files. Hence I will use OmniPage to create rtf files which I will then import into UR. There is no other coding work around that I can figure out other than by creating hyperlinks between selected text in the RTF docs and items.
Thanks everyone all the same.
Cheers,
Mitch

there are in pdf if you can add link in pdf - for that you need pdf editor, UR links have special ur protocol, for example
ur:///?item=6835,6833,5710,1000&pos=554
or you can still have pdf and put links into “notes” pane.
try to explain what you are trying to achieve, that will probably get you more relevant answers, alternativelly ask directly at kinooks forum ...
