jeemart Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 When I insert a PDf file or Word document in a container field how can I click on this so that the file opens for me to view? Hope someone can help this starter to Filemaker. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetaSys Software Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Store the file as reference. When in 'Insert file' option, select the file and check the 'Store only Reference to the file' option, below 'files of type'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wim Decorte Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Or, if you have the real file in the container, script an action to: - export field content - send event to that exported file to open it - (but you may have to think about deleting it again when doen...)
