Attachment Field on Form

[Matthew Scheperle]

When I view my form I want the users to see a list of the file names in the
attachments field rather than just icons.

Is this easy to do?

Thanks,

You can loop through the attachment field and get the file names and then
display them somehow. This article should help:

The default behavior lets the user see the list of attachments when they
manage attachments as well.

That would work. I may also go with a tool tip that says to double click to
add/view documents. Then have a second instance of the same field that
displays the "paperclip" with the number of attachments next to it...

Anyway, the link does help me understand how the attachment field works.

Thanks,
