hi b cole,

drag and drop one textfield and button from the library pallete into the layout and then for the button

event : Click   Language : JavaScript

var

entryCount =

0;

var

i =

parseInt(entryCount.value);

var

oDoc =

event.target;

oDoc.importDataObject("entry"

+

i);

var

oAttachment = oDoc.getDataObject("entry" +

i);

var

attachPath =

oAttachment.path;

var

oFile =

oDoc.getDataObjectContents(oAttachment.name);

TextField1.rawValue

=

attachPath;

// app.alert(entryCount.value);

entryCount.value

= String(parseInt(entryCount.value)+

1);

when you click on button a pop up will be opened to select a file from your desired path, select the file.

you will find the file attached in the attachments tab of adobe reader.

Note : In the script the textfield name is TextField1, you should change this name as per your field name

Thanks,

Madhu.
