Attachment Control

[Jeff G]

All -

I like the attachment field in 2007. The question I have is there a way to
display the Attachment dialog box as a control on a form? Meaning, is there
a way to show the Manage Attachments box that has the Add, Remove, Open,
etc. on a Form instead of the paperclip icon?

Thanks.

I usually have a button "manage attachments" that when clicked calls this
code:
DoCmd.GoToControl "Attachments"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdManageAttachments

Where "Attachments" is the name of the attachment control.

So it will popup the box just like if you selected manage attachments

Does that work?

A little more user friendly than just having the attachment control itself.

HTH,
