In Access 2007 there should be an "attachments" option in the drop-down menu
for a new field in a table. I do not have this in my software. Is it an
optional part of the install that i've missed?

Thanks.

You might want to check your Access Options (behind the Microsoft logo in
the upper left). It may be that your copy of Access 2007 is, by default,
using the Access 2003 format. If so, Access 2003 doesn't have "attachment"
data types.

Hi Scott,

could it be that you're working in a 2000 or 2002/2003 compatible format?

kind regards
