Storing attachment on server

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Hi,

I want to make a button for people to be able to insert a attachment which is stored on the server into the current mail they are writing. I know I can do this no problem if the attachment is on the local machine (@Command( [EditInsertFileAttachment] ; file ; compress ))

The reason I need this is becuase we have many users and they all need to be able to send this attachment from time to time. The attachment is a pdf and small about 60k.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks,

Fabio

The key to this is the ‘file’ parameter of EditInsertFileAttachmentThis parameter should be the full path (including server) to the file

Hopefully every user will have the same drive mapping to the file directory?

e.g. for all users, is the file soemthing like;

p:\brochures\brochure.pdf?

If so, then yu jyt out that full file into the command- but don’t forget that @functions need you to double uo the backslashes -

p:\brochures\brochure.pdf?

The problem is that the users are on different networks they dont all have the same shared drive. Thats why I would like to keep it on the Domino server where everyone can access. Is this possible? I tried:

@Command( [EditInsertFileAttachment]; “SERVER/Name”:“c:\BACKUP\brochure.pdf” ; 0 )

but to no avail, error “File does not exist”…

Thanks,
