I want to give the user the ability to "attach" a file (say a PDF) to a record. I know how to launch a file using Send Message and even if I have the name of the file in a field. But how do I give the user the ability (through a prompt)to call up a Windows browser window, search for a file, select it and that file name (and path, i guess) copied to a field. With the intent that another user can then click on a button to open that file. I hope I made myself clear.

Thanks...

Look at the Troi file plugin first. The plugin is easy to use and inexpensive. The plugin is cross platform. Another alternative is WinBatch, which can easily handle any file chore, but requires more learning.
