Associating a File with an Article

You can associate any disk file with an article by creating an article attachment. To create a file attachment:

•	Highlight the article's title in the Titles column of the Index Window.

OR Open the article's Article Window by double-clicking on its title in the Index Window.

•	Click on the Article Attachment button on the Tools Toolbar.

OR Select the Article Properties command from the Article menu.

The Article Properties dialog box is displayed.

•	Select the Attachment tab.

If you used the Article Attachment button on the Toolbar, you are already at the Attachment tab.

•	In the Attachment Type box, select File Name.

•	In the Target box, type the name of the file you want to associate with this article.

OR Click the Browse button to locate the file you want from the Select Attachment File dialog box.

•	Select the OK button to save the attachment.

The file is now associated with this article. A paper clip icon appears in the upper right corner of the Article Window. Hold the mouse cursor over this icon to verify the name of the attachment.

TIP:	Another way to attach a file to an article is by dragging its file name directly from Windows Explorer into the corresponding Article Window.
