Do you mind pasting some code here so I can see.
Shouldn't be too hard just add the address to a linkbutton.

        <asp:HyperLinkField Text="Websiteurl"  NavigateUrl='<%#Eval("WebsiteURL")%>'  Target="_blank"/>
        </Columns>

Hi Martin,

Please do following:

XML

<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AllowPaging="true"  AutoGenerateColumns="false">
        <Columns>
            <asp:TemplateField>
                <ItemTemplate>
                    <asp:HyperLink runat="server" ID="hylWebsite"
                        Text='<%#Eval("WebsiteName")%>' NavigateUrl='<%#Eval("WebsiteURL")%>'></asp:HyperLink>
                </ItemTemplate>
            </asp:TemplateField>
        </Columns>
    </asp:GridView>

Please do let me know, if you have any doubt.

Please provide Vote if this would be helpful to you.
