PD, the datatype you are probably looking for is “blob” (in most dbs) in which you can attach binary attachments. I’m afraid that datatype is not available in Access.

You can use the datatype OLE Object and use the Insert/Object in the table. Or you can put in a hyperlink to the file (e.g. resume.doc) in the database and have the file sitting in a specific share on the network.

I have tried with OLE object and also with linking, I am fine with table properties. But I don’t know how I am suppose to output that on the form. I hope you are getting me. I know I can do it, but its not coming to me for some reason. :(, if you could provide me with an example that would be great. I have looked over blob example too, it didn’t do much for me. I was wondering while you are at this problem, would you be able to tell me how I can sort record manually. I mean I have to put fields in certain order. I am working on it though, hopefully I will be successful. thank you for your response Tofibaba.
