I am a big believer in having a table field on my form that references another form that holds the attachment.
As then 1. I can have an unlimited number of attachments 2. Control access to each attachment - Who can view, edit, remove 3. Enforce Business Rules about when and what types of attachments must be present 4. Auditing 5. In/Out bound email attachments - tying these to the correct record 6. etc Doug Tanner Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) Former - Remedy Approved Consultant (RAC) ________________________________ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gayford, Matthew C. Sent: Friday, January 25, 2008 11:02 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Lots of Attachments Hello List, I'm building a form on ARS and one of the requirements from the client is an attachment pool. They want to have the ability to add up to 50 attachments. However, not every entry will actually use this many attachments. In fact, most of the requests they enter in this form will not use any of these attachment areas. Anyone have any suggestions for a work around? Or, just any thoughts about the impact of having that many empty attachment areas out there? Regards, -Matt Matthew C.
