First post, but this appears to be a great place for help.

Our company has an Access database for Engineering and there is an area
where files can be attached for all to view. It works flawlessly for all but
one user and I can't pinpoint the problem.

This user will click the Attach Files button and select their file and click
OK, but the file doesn't attach and there appears to be no reaction. Every
other user can do this with no issues and we have to figure it out.

Could there be some settings that need to be enabled on this user's machine
in Access? Thanks for the help.
 
Does the user/machine have write permissions to the data destination? Try
stepping through the code line by line. You'll probably have to put a copy
of the mdb on that client's machine and turn warnings on in the code. Try
logging in with a different account on the same machine too. hth
