Re: How to display PDF in file attachment fields

Did you create the report link field that I ask led you to create?  Or did you skip that step.

    I am not sure I follow what you mean by  "Then make a report link field and configure both the left and the right matching fields to be that same report link formula field above" 

    This is the formula I have in the Rich text field. Which I have labeled [PDF Viewer].

    If(
    [Proof] = "", "No File",

    "<iframe src=\"docs.google.com/gview?url="&URLRoot() & "up/" & Dbid() & "/a/r" &[Record ID#] & "/e6/v0" & "&embedded=true\" width=\"800\" height=\"2400\" frameborder=\"0\" target=\"_blank\"></iframe>")

    The file is located in FID 6. The name of that field is [Proof].

    Thanks,

      You need to create a second field of type report link, configure it like I said and then put the Report Link field on the form.

        I see. It appears to be showing the iframe now but it is not recognizing the link. Screenshot attached.
