Allow Excel Files to be attached to project records

B

Brandon

Hello,
I have a project tracking database with one record for each project. Each
project has an Excel based project definition form that I would like the user
to be able to attach as on OLE link (not embedded because I think this makes
the DB huge). I can add the field ok and it allows me to attach the object
just fine, but I'd like to have a command button that says "insert excel
form" that will attach it to the record without the user having to click
"Insert" and then Object from the menu. Is this possible and should I be
doing this at all in the first place?
Thanks
Brandon

tell us more about what you're doing man.

i think that there is a better; easier way.

for starters; the Office Web Components have a spreadsheet component--
this might be a better fit for your needs.
