Attaching PDF File

[Chuckd]

I'm creating a simple db on shared network drive and I need to upload or attach documents into it. Mainly PDF but may need to add .doc or .xls. I cannot use hyperlink since I cannot store the files where they are easily accessed due to security issues. So my only recourse was to create a secured db. Size is not an issue due to limited use. How do I do this?

Thanks
Chuck

Add an OLE-Object field in your table.

If you want to add multiple attachments to 1 record, consider putting your documents into a separate table and link it to your main table.

Good luck!
