How to open a pdf file using a dynamic link from an existing DataAssist Results page

I have an existing DataAssist Search/Results page (one page). One column of the results table provides a dynamic link to a pdf file. I can get a static link to open the pdf file, and can also get a dynamic link to open one file, but need it to open different pdf files for each result.

When setting the parameters for the dynamic link, it asks for a detail page. Tried having it go to the results page, but didn't work. Tried adding a Detail page using DataAssist Pages, but don't know how to tie it to the existing results page. Is a Detail page even needed just to open a pdf file?

File attached.
