Setting Up Attachments Anywhere

To use Attachments Anywhere with Dovetail Agent, a configuration item must be set in the fc_client_config.dat file and imported to your database.

Code to get the configuration item:

// get any related attachments (for count only) 

// to overide config_itm, 

// set attach_type = 0 for classic style 

// set attach_type = 1 for anywhere style 

var attach_type = FCSession.Item("config_itm.attachment_style.i_value"); 

if(attach_type == "") attach_type = 0;

The next line is the attach_type mode, which sets the method of attachment handling used in your database (0 = Classic Clarify, 1 = Attachments Anywhere):

• To override the config item and force the Attachment Anywhere style, add this line next:

   attach_type = 1;

• OR To override the config item and force the Classic Attachment style, add this line next:

   attach_type = 0;

Note: The Classic Attachment style is only valid for those objects in Clarify that have relations from the object itself to the doc_inst object, such as Case, CR, Site, etc.
