Custom Field - File
Posted: 17 Mar 08 7:02 PM Modified By KillerKiwi on 3/17/2008 7:05:52 PM)
Does the custom field file type actually work

I created a custom field of type guid, and changed the edit view entry to link to the field as type file... but skimming through the code with a debugger it dosn't seem to get uploaded any where ... only images seem to be handled?

Also there is a
SqlProcs.spIMAGES_Insert
but no
SqlProcs.spFILES_Insert ?

Thanks

There does seem to be some missing code with relation to having a file as a custom field.  What is your goal?  An account can already accept an attachment.  Why must it be a custom field?

we would like to attach a pdf to a order

Ideally we like the edit to look like

[ download ] [delete]
[ fileinputcontrol ]

and view to be just [ download ]

If you create a custom field, then you can only have one attachment.  If you use the existing Create Note or Attachment button, then you can have as many attachments as you want.

Why doesn't the existing system satisfy your requirement?

Its a required field... I've just about completed the code to make it work

[edit] code submitted to support@splendidcrm.com

copy of patch http://rafb.net/p/FyZuKE21.html

Note: This reuses the images table to store files.. works fine
