FM7 container fields

Is there away too insert a mutiple files into a container field with the ability too click on it and open each one(.doc, .xls) from the container field.

I have a project where they want too insert mutiple emails or files into each record. So that when users view there record they can click and open the documents that accociate with that record. Any help on this would be awesome!

You can't put multiple files separately in a container field. But, like any other data, you can put it into a related table (or file), with data entry via a portal in the main table, or via a scripted Insert.

In 7 you can start/stop a portal at specified rows, so you can effectively build a "contact sheet" type grid, if there's lots of files for a main record.

I don't really see how/why they'd put emails into a container field, unless there's graphics and it's a screenshot or something; I can certainly see why they'd want to link to emails, but I would think that text would do. Email is not a "file", so how could they Insert it?

Personally I think I'd want all this stuff in another related file, not the main file. It sounds like it's going to get huge.
