I've never seen a system that will do that and I've often wished it could.
Since there is often call number searching that can be done, the link on the
call numbers lead you to browse in that area. I suspect that if you had the
call number field link to another MaRC tag it would have to do that in all
the records. As an alternative you might want to see if you can get the URL
to display either nearer your items or near the top of the screen so it's
more noticeable.

To other libraries with DRA and e-books:
We recently acquired 500 e-books from netLibrary and downloaded the MARC
records. We have DRAweb2 and ideally we'd like to have the link in the call
number box. DRA says this isn't possible but I'd like to see if anyone else
has tried it successfully. If it won't work, we'll probably just put a
message in the box directing the patron to the link above. The other part of
this is: is there a way to do this for all records simultaneously rather
than one-at-a-time?
Please contact me directly. Thanks.
