I'm glad that worked for you &nbsp;:)<br />
***In case your users come up with the request that they want to attach more than just 1 file attachment (which is common) here's what you can do:<br />
Right Click on your Attachment field<br />
Properties<br />
Check the box for &quot;Repeating&quot;<br />
Delete the old field on the form and drag and drop this one onto your form and select &quot;Repeating table&quot; when it asks you.<br />
<br />
(That way you don't have to create a ton of attachment fields)<br />

I am creating a form in Infopath based on a MS Access database. I am trying to add a file attachment control on the form but I keep getting the following error: &quot;A file attachment must be bound to a non repeating field with a picture or a file attachment data type. If the field is part of a repeating group, then the file attachment control must be inside a repeating table or repeating section that is bound to that group.&quot; I tried changing the data type in the database to OLE object but Infopath does not support large binary fields.<br />

How can I add a field attachment control to my form?

Microsoft InfoPath is a software application for designing, distributing, filling and submitting electronic forms containing structured data. The product features a WYSIWYG form designer in which the various controls (e.g. textbox, radio button, checkbox) are bound to data, represented separately as a hierarchical tree view of folders and data fields. All the data stored in InfoPath forms are stored in an XML format. Secondary data sources can be built into the form or they can be accessed through an external data connection to SharePoint or a Web service.

InfoPath

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.
