That was likely it. This could also have been done with a helper field (a field added to the data source with no control on the form) - the default value would be AttachmentField1 = AttachmentField2 and you could add rules to the helper field to take action if the result is true or false. :)

Hi Hilary,

That works great thanks.

Not sure why I couldn't make it work the first time around. Possibly something to do with the fact i only had the rules set on one attachment box.

Thanks,

Dave.

Interesting! InfoPath stores these in base64, so I would guess the value would be the same for both.... see attached sample. Right click the link, save the file locally, right click the saved file & select design. Then you can preview and try it out.

Hi,

I'm trying to compare two attachments and set a field value based on whether they're different or not.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dave,
