How to stop icons appearing on attachment control

[ronymaxwell]

When a user clicks an attachment control, three small controls appear for manipulating records. I don't want the built in controls to be used. I have command buttons already coded to do what I want which work fine. How do I stop the built in controls appearing when the user clicks the attachment control?

Change the Enabled Property for the Control to No.

It's that easy? Thank you. I did consider that but thought I wouldn't then be able to use the control at all. Thanks missinglinq.

Don't know whether you will or not, to be honest, but you said that you had custom controls to do this. You'll just have to try it and see. My guess would be that if you cannot manipulate the Records with it Disabled you're stuck with them.

I have tried it out and disabling the control does work. It stops the icons appearing but I can still change the picture using the command buttons I've added. Perfect. Thanks, missinglinq.
