After users selects the form , how to restrict attachment for not to delete.i locked the control but i want the user want to open the document,but not for deletion

You can add an OnBeforeChange event handler which checks the operation and then gives an error message if they are trying to delete the attachment.

Hope this helps!

I have the exact scenario like vamsi.krishna.

This may be stupid to ask, but how do you add an OnBeforeChange event handler to an attachment control?
This can be easily done in other controls with "Data Validation" option, but not attachment control though.

Open the DataSource in the task pane and double click on the Node/field that is mapped to the attachment control to look at its properties. Open the Validation and Event handlers tab. There is a dropdown at the bottom that allows you to create the OnBeforeChange event
