Attaching a URL or File

Access a form where attachments are available.

Attach a URL to provide access to a Web page or a file on a disk. You can also attach file types that cannot be attached as images or OLE files, such as bitmaps.

  1. On a form where attachments are available, do one of these tasks:

    • To attach a URL or file to a form, from the Form menu, select Attachments.

      If attachments exist for the form, click the paper clip button to the right of the status bar.

    • To attach a URL or file to a grid row, select the row and then, from the Row menu, select Attachments.

  2. On Media Objects, do one of these tasks:

    • From the File menu, select New and then URL/File.

    • In the button panel, click the right mouse button, select New, and then select URL/File from the pop-up menu.

  3. On Add URL/File, browse your files or queues, select the appropriate URL or file, and click Open. You can also type a URL in the field.

  4. Click OK.

    Your URL or file appears in the viewer panel. If you are attaching a URL, a download dialog box appears. You can either verify that the URL is active or you can click Cancel.

  5. When you finish, from the File menu, select Save and Exit.
