Thank you for your awesome insight! What if I have multiple subfolders inside one folder (and not just one folder as in your case). How can I open files in this case?

Hello Sir, I needed your help in access can we link the attachments field to the folder?. I mean if someone deletes the file in the folder so it gets deleted in the attachment field also for a particular field??.

I made an Email Template especially for this form, how can open it as an email body and current Customer name?

Quick Question: How can I click a button and have Access open a specific folder (in Explorer)?

[AAAA-eorg]

So the objective here is that whatever file I have added it should be linked with its respective folder in a way that any changes made to the folder(such as delete)will reflect on my file attachment as well.

As far as repopulating the signature, there's probably a quick code like the old "body", "subject", "mailto:" codes.
