What i like is the posibility to link several files to a record. This could be an offer word document, an excel speadsheet etc. Every thing which is related to exactly that record. When someone open the record (in a form) then he should have the posibility to dblt click on the file he is interested in seeing and open it.

The file itselfe can be placed in a folder linked to the specific record - this can be done by creating a folder with a name stored in a field in the record.

I'm thinking of some kind of explorer like control, which can be put directly into a form. To this control I like to drag and drop the files I worn to link.

Any surgestions ?
