Linking a PDF file to a Table

[Troubled1]

Is there anyway to link a PDF file to a table and be able to access the file from a form??

Thanks,

I recommend you store the file externally, then store the path and filename of the PDF file. Then, you can either use a hyperlink field to open the file, or you can use the built-in Shell("filename\goes\here.PDF&quot function, or you can use the ShellExecute API call (follow link below for good instructions)

I think this is a satisfactory solution.
