Default Attachment field does not appear

I want a field to contain a jpg image. Help says to use the Attachment filed
when adding a new field (column.) All I get are the standard
Text/Memo/Number... choices. I'm using MS Office 2007 Pro. All suggestions
will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Charles,

Is your database an Access 2007 database? I am guessing not. If you
need to keep it as a 2002/2003 or earlier version use the OLE Object type
instead.

Clifford: Office 2007 Pro does contain Access 2007...so yes it is Access
2007. Original question remains.
