This topic has been closed for replies.

Dan Diebolt who haunts this forum regularly did one of his famous image on load techniques for me for a client which allowed them to navigate to a file path and have that stored in the text field but not actually upload the file. That saved the user from having to type in a long ugly file path.

 I suggest that you contact Dan. If you can't find his contact information on this forum email me off-line and I will send you his email address

I'm a bit late to this party, by a year it looks like. If you want a link to a document and not upload it to Quick Base as a file attachment, I recommend using a URL field instead.
