Note item not found - attachments disappearing

I have a document library (not based on the template). It has a bunch of possible RTF’s for attaching reports.One document showed 31 attachments in 1 field. In the document properties it showed only 4 $File fields and indeed only 4 attachments launched the others threw the error ‘Note item not found’. When the user reattaches the broken attachments it seems to work.

Other interesting facts include…

The db was built in R5 with a 1 gig limit and is presently 920 mb. However it is now on an R6 server and does get compacted nightly. In the administration client it shows there is no Max Limit on the database.

I’ve run into problems with indexed db’s, if indexing attachments and having over ~17 attachments. *This db is not indexed.

Does anyone have any thoughts what could be causing this? I’ve searched and found nothing relevant. TIA

Thanks for responding.I read this post and I don’t think it applies. The technote is about inheritence of an RTF not inheriting any embedded objects and this is not an inheritence issue. The other link is for the removal of attachments which I am not trying to do. They appear to be removing themselves but leaving the icon as though they are still there. There is a button to help users attach the attachments with the following code

@Command([EditGotoField] ; “report” ) ;

@Command([EditInsertFileAttachment])

Any other thoughts?
