Association Link

Is there a way to implement associations as links to the respective files or datalists? These associations are not child associations.Thanks

Yes, you can do that.

I don't know if you want to do that using the interface or code, but I think this addon can help you in both cases.

You can simply install and use it or use the source code to learn how to create those programming.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately this is not what I was asking. I have added a screenshot showing my issue. I have created my own custom type which has an association with another file. What I wanted to ask was is there a way to create that association as a link to the particular file? Like in datalists you are able to click on the associations and it navigates to the particular file.

If the association was created, then you simply have to cofigure share to show it as a link.
For this, check this out:

Read about the "showTargetLink" parameter
