Hi.

I have explored the hyperlink and the OLE object properties and from reading what other people encountered determined that I need to index records using the hyperlink method (so that the files aren't embedded needlessly in my database.)

However. I don't know how to go about creating the scenario I am looking for.

I need to press a button and on the click event create a window that will browse for a file. Once the file is selected, the code would then copy that file to a pre-specified directory and add that new hyperlink to the respective field.

Any suggestions on how I might go about this?
 
Did you ever get an answer because I need exactly that information myself!
