In SharePoint if you are using hyperlink columns there are some worthwhile things to bear in mind.
- If you are setting a hyperlink column value in workflow then the format is 'URL, Link Text', and the space after the comma is really important! Without it the link name will not get picked up.
- The column has to be 255 characters or less. If you are referring to an internal SharePoint URL using the 'Source' parameter* within it then you may easily hit this limit.
*Tip: You don't have to specify the fully qualified URL for an internal source you could just use a relative URL such as '?source=../../default.aspx'.
Just a quick post today, but I have been caught out by these issues in the past.
