Yes.
You need to instantiate an Attachment instance; call its one of the
several SetValue overloads to initialize the file name and file content
values; then assign it as a value for an attachment field as below:
// Instantiate an Attachment object
ARSystem.Attachment attach = new ARSystem.Attachment();
// Do some thing similar to one of the following 3 snippets
//1:
System.IO.Stream fileStream = System.IO.File.Open("..\\..\\TEST.JPG",
System.IO.FileMode.Open, System.IO.FileAccess.Read);
byte [] bytes = new byte[fileStream.Length];
fileStream.Read(bytes, 0, (int)fileStream.Length);
fileStream.Close();
attach.SetValue("My test attachment", bytes);
//Or 2:
attach.SetValue("My test attachment", "..\\..\\TEST.JPG");
//Or. 3:
System.IO.Stream fileStream = System.IO.File.Open("..\\..\\TEST.JPG",
System.IO.FileMode.Open, System.IO.FileAccess.Read);
attach.SetValue("My test attachment", fileStream);
// and finally...
fieldValues[536880912] = attach;
As Tim mentioned, look at the docs for Attachment class or Server's
CreateEntry/SetEntry documentation example snippets.

Subject: Re: Add Attachments via .Net API
Did you create an Attachment object first, then set the value with the
SetValue() method? Check out the documentation under "Attachment
class."
