I have a file attachment and I'm looking to make a button for the user to preview the file attachment. I found an old thread about this suggesting the following, however when I click that I get a url cannot be found web page. Also, it opens in the same tab as quickbase, and I am hoping to open in a new tab. Can anyone help? Thanks!

if ([Document]>"", "<a href=\"" &URLRoot() & "up/" & Dbid() & "/a/r" & [Record ID#]& "/e999\"target=_blank\">" & [Document]& "</a>","")



change the 999 in e999 to be the field id of the Document field
