File Attachment Upload and Download

All client interfaces can access existing repositories for upload and download of file attachments except as follows:

Shared file repositories can be accessed only if the repository daemon is running on a computer that can access the shared file. The server name on the repository record (detail form) must be a Windows computer that has access to the share. A <USDK repository daemon must also be running on the computer.
Note: Shared drive repositories are not supported on WIN2003.
Download of zip files is based on when they were uploaded. Attachments from earlier releases are downloaded without unzipping them. Unzip the file on the client computer; otherwise, attachments uploaded from a client interface, are also downloaded without unzipping them. That is, the server unzips the file before returning it, during a client download request.
Note: Legacy clients continue to function the same way, and have ready access to new uploads to existing repositories.

Note: For information about how to work with attachments, see the Online Help.
