We are trying to convert a small application created in MS-Access to ARS version 4.5 (soon to be upgraded). It is fairly straight forward with one exception - there is a field in the Access table that is used to store a Microsoft Word document as an OLE Object. We would like to take those Word documents and import into Remedy as an attachment along with the other data. Has anyone done anything like this before and if so, would you kindly point me in the right direction. Thank you.
