Thanks for the information Hilary. I think we will give this idea a try. Great idea!

I wonder about maybe using a few fields for this... You could have a secondary data source that had a list of files they could choose from and the URLs and then set your hyperlink based on what they choose. Simple sample attached, save it locally, right click and select design and preview.

Eliminate multiple documents with a document link instead of attach

We have a truck request form that our shipper receives that details the information for his shipment. Part of that form has an attachment control to attach some required or helpful documents that he may or may not require for shipping purposes. Is there are way to have the same functionality as an attachment (user selects the files that need to go with the truck request), but instead of including those files, it only include links that the shipper can then click on and access the files in their original location? I know that I could include a text input that they manually type in OR use the hyperlink control, but I am trying to make it as easy as possible for our users and also I would like to eliminate the need for copies of files to be created. Thanks.
