Thanks for your response. The link to the file does not include the %20 in my situation (for some reason). I added a rule to make it that way, though. And now it works.

On the hyperlink field in my form (coming back from SP) -

If Hyperlink contains " "

concat(substring-before(., " "), "%20", substring-after(., " "))

This resolved the problem.

Hi-

qRules use the GetAttachmentAttributes command (introduced in v2.2) to determine the filename. To that filename it prepends a unique prefix using date and time stamp plus and underscore. I can add a request to investigate this for a future version.

If a file with a space in the filename is uploaded manually to SharePoint, I see that the link becomes:

http://shp2010-test2/Shared%20Documents/New%20Text%20Document.txt

What is the link generated by qRules and added to your form?

Thank you for this additional info.

I have a form that submits attachments to a document library (pictures and files), and populates a link to that item in a sharepoint list. The link is then populated back into the form to view attachments.

The links work fine for pictures (because for some reason it always names them _picture). But files saved to the library that have a " " in the filename do not work with the hyperlink. I get a 404 file not found error. I get the same behavior from the link in the list.

Is there a way to change the filename that SharePoint/Qrules saves to the library? I can't ask all my users to rename their files.
