Attachments Not Showing

[Linda E]

I added the Message field to the form, but when I send the form with an
attachment neither the attachment nor the message field appear. I found a
post that said "if you remove the message body control from the Read layout
for the form, the attachments won't be visible". Sorry to be so dense but
I'm rather new at form building...I don't understand what that means.

It means that you need to open the form in design mode, click the Edit Read Page button, and add the message body control back to the form by dragging the Message/Notes field from the Field Chooser to the custom form page.

That button is grayed out.

So you have set up this form to show the same layout to both the sender and recipients? In that case, you still need to have a message body to show attachments.
