Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Gets a specific attachment associated with the current file record.
Values passed to getAttachment() will normally be ones obtained from a previous insertAttachment(), updateAttachment(), or getAttachments() operation.
Before calling getAttachment, you must establish a current record using one of the positioning methods, such as doSelect(), getNext(), etc.
Syntax
SCFile_object.getAttachment( attachID );
Arguments
getAttachment() takes one argument, which is a string containing an attachment ID of the cid:xxxxx form.
Return values
If successful, getAttachment() returns an Attachment object. Otherwise, it returns null
.
Example
This example does the following:
- Selects one record from the probsummary table.
- Gets a specific attachment associated with the current record
This example requires the following sample data:
- Record number IM10001 in the probsummary table
var f = new SCFile( 'probsummary' ); var rc = f.doSelect( 'number = "IM10001"' ); var attachmentObj = f.getAttachment( attachmentID );
