You could add the link from a field to a table then use a layout to join the table to the body text.

Sounds good, for the fixed link works very well.

Then it can be a column in the file.

 

You can use a field in the input stream to the output tool as the path to save the file to:

I will do that, can I include file path as dynamic field into the e-mail body?

Excellent post... I was struggling with the whole reporting tool concept.  Your example was exactly what I was looking for.

 

Thanks,
