Images vs Attachments
Hi. I have stored images directly in tables to link documents to specic tasks. Is there a better way of doing this? For instance, using a trigger to upload to Attachments, giving files a specific name? If so, any ideas for a script for upload button and a validation field?
Also, is there a way of making attachments visible in a view/form?
