I created a folder on my E: drive called Mind Maps, see Capture1, it has one file called Test Map.txt

In my Test Library I created a custom column named Mind Maps, see Capture2

Custom Comments columns can be shown as a columns in the Book List, but due to their very nature they're not very pretty - so I put them behind an small icon - this is done in Preferences->Look and Feel->Column Icons see Capture3 (I will put the icon file I am using here as the last attachment - IMO best results are square 128x128 png files with transparent background)

In the book list I highlight the Mind Maps cell in a Book, press F2, and the free standing Comments editor pops up - see Capture4

Now I enter data into the Mind Map cell, I enter a header "Mind Map" then I use the Link Widget - see Capture 5

In Capture 6 you see the result - I put the Mind Maps Column in Book Details, so I click on First Mind Map (the label I entered for the E:\Mind Maps\Test Map.txt in previous step) and up pops the Test Map - in my case its a text file, so Notepad++ pops up

Hope that helps

It helps, but it is not completely what I am looking for. It has given me a new thought process on how to accomplish what I am looking for. Let me play around a little bit and I will write if I need more help or cannot figure it out.

Thank you Red.
