Hi!

I'd like to check the size of (all) attachments on the client. We have 5
(unlimited) attachment fields and when the size exceeds the limit of xx
kByte the user should get a message ("Compress your files !!!").

Is it possible and if so, how?

Thanks,
Kay

You can set a temp field to the value of the attachement field in a filter, and strip from this the size of the attachment

Eg

attachment 1 = 6904;2705;C:/Program_Files/Remedy/att2.log

here att2.log is the file, and 6904 is the file size, with 2705 it's compressed size on the system.

Storing these values and adding them allows a total atachment size to be managed, rather than limiting individual file sizes.

Hope this helps.
