Lisa,
 
Another method that is slightly more involved is to generate and store an MD5 value each time the attachment field is changed.  MD5 values can be generated from a run process, SQL Server and many programming languages http://userpages.umbc.edu/~mabzug1/cs/md5/md5.html.
 
After generating the MD5 value a filter's Run If qualification like this   'Attachment MD5' != 'DB.Attachment MD5'   should work.
 
As a general rule, try to accomplish what you want completely using ARS.  I only mention this approach in case it may be useful to you or others.

Yes that would definitely qualify if you have deleted an attachment during a given transaction...

You're right!  I changed my delete action to: ( 'DB.First Attachment' !=  $NULL$ ) AND ( 'First Attachment' =  $NULL$ )

And you realize that TR.FirstAttachment will be $NULL$ on modification of a ticket, even if you haven't touched the current attachment field during that transaction right????

More info:
 
I do a 'TR.FirstAttachment' = $NULL$, this is a delete. And I do a 'FirstAttachment != 'DB.FirstAttachment', and this captures an add action, but not an overwrite....isn't that weird???

I've noticed you need to remove, edit and readd the attachment and then save the record.. it then takes the new one in...

Subject: Overwriting Attachments

I'm trying to capture add and delete actions of an attachment pool to a
history form. Add and deletes are easily captured, but what if someone
adds overwrites an attachment? A window pops up asking if you would like
to overwrite it, but then it seems like Remedy does not recognize this as
a "change." Is there a way to capture this?
