adyf Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I've finally been upgraded at work from FileMaker Pro 11 to FileMaker Pro 16. There no longer appears to be an 'insert object' function on the shortcut menu for container fields. I can insert a file (word document) but it only displays the MS Word icon rather than the document itself that the insert object function did. Any ideas please? I have a button with associated script to open the document, but I'm used to being able to see them within the container field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
