Using an Attachment

< Previous section  |  Table of Contents  |  Index  |  Next section >

Once you have attached a file to an equipment or space record, MainBoss makes it easy to view or print the attachment. Simply open the record, go to the Specifications section, and double-click on the line specifying the attachment. MainBoss will open a window describing the attachment. (This is the same window used for creating the attachment in the first place—for more information, see Creating an Attachment.)

To view the attached file, click the View button in this window. To print the attached file, click the Print button. In both cases, MainBoss uses the appropriate viewing program to open the file. From that point on, you can use the viewing program in whatever way the program allows. For example, if the viewing program is Microsoft Word, you can use all the normal facilities of Word to read the file, print it, make changes, etc.
