Exporting Attachments

Hello,

Is there anyway to export a report/table with attachments? When I export a report with an attachments field type, it exports the file name. Is there anyway to export the report so that I can access the attachments from the export?

Thanks in advance,

While you can't export the attachments in this way, you CAN instead include a link to the attachment that would give you the ability to download the attachment from Quick Base. You will need to create a new Formula-URL field and use this as the basis for the formula:

"<a href=\"" & URLRoot() & "up/" & DBid() & "/a/r" & [Record ID#] & "/e16/v0\">" & [File Attachment Field Name] & "</a>"

Replace the 16 with the FID for the File Attachment field and then replace the 'File Attachment Field Name' with the File Attachment Field. Add this to your report and you will then have a link back to the file.
