Attaching External Files to Notes

You can use notes to attach files created in other applications. These files can include any type of file that your work environment supports. For example, you can attach files that represent text documents, spreadsheets, graphics, even multimedia files.

You can attach a file to a new note or an existing note. The file must already exist in a location that is accessible to any users who might access it from the note.

Caution: Attaching a file to an existing note replaces any text content the note may have with the path and file name for the attached file. If you have note text that you want to preserve, either copy the text to another note, or attach the file to a new note.

After a file has been attached to a note, you and others can open the attached file by clicking Open Attachment.

Notes that have files attached do not print in reports and other printing utilities.
