title: Dynamically building a URL in QTP
body: <p>I've been taking a quick look at QTP with one of our test team. </p>
  
  <p>We've figured out some basics like recording a test, capturing text using output values, putting in check points, etc.</p>
  
  <p>However, I can't figure out how to do the following...</p>
  
  <p>We have a web form which a user fills in and submits. This will create an item and assign it an ID in the database. We can capture this ID.</p>
  
  <p>A subsequent page then shows a list of all items, with a link available to open a specific item. This is a simple hyperlink on a web page.</p>
  
  <p>How do I:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Check that a link exists on the page with the ID assigned from the creation step?</li>
  <li>Click that link?</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I'm sure that this must be possible, but I've been struggling grokking the tool so far, so this is a shameless cry for help to save me from having to study the docs.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
