Multiple Attachments

[Delnang]

I have a situation where a users may attach one Word file to the form or
several more depending on the need. What I thought would be good is to start
the user with one Word Attachment icon (field) and then allow them to add
more files as needed. I put the Word Attachment icon (field) in a repeating
section thinking they could "insert" an item as needed, but that didn't do
what I had expected. Any ideas how I can save on space by allowing the user
to add as many attachments as needed?

Hi,
Create a Layout Table(non-repeating) from the table toolbar at the top with
1 column & 1 row (depending upon your need). Now Insert a repeating table in
that cell & then insert the file attachment control to it.

To allow the user to insert another attachment only when they have attached
one already, to do that double click on the repeating table cell (you may
want to right click on "Repeating Table" and then go to properties), now open
the "Display" tab and then "Conditional Formatting" button, now "Add" a
condition with parameters: 1st: attachment field name
2nd: is blank
then select "dont allow users to insert...."

I hope this helps.
