I am only talking about custom development J I am just asking about functionally of an attachment field. Can you open an attachment, make changes, and save? Will it save the changes in the attachment? Process wise. of course I would not advise anyone to do document management like that, etc. Thanks again, Mark From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Rick Cook Sent: Thursday, July 29, 2010 12:36 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Update Attachments? ** They definitely should not. That's what applications like Sharepoint are for. But if they insist on using Remedy for that, you should build something in a separate form that would act as a clearinghouse for all attachments.

As if they were just in a directory. They want to be able to open the attachment, make changes and save. As I remember, I do not think attachments could work this way.
