What caused it is that the extension .pdf was associated with the missing application. Once the .pdf extension was associated with an installed .pdf reader, the file opened as expected.<br /><br />Kind regards,<br /><br />LeslieDynamics Confessorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06555435567985477366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2902800390575811159.post-3750896100496944702014-10-28T12:02:47.818-05:002014-10-28T12:02:47.818-05:00Leslie,

If so, how do we make each PDF uniform to one PDF writer.<br /><br />Thank you,<br /><br />LisaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07730678346924627178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2902800390575811159.post-26592428767375516352014-09-26T12:31:28.462-05:002014-09-26T12:31:28.462-05:00Kimberly,

To continue using your old OLE notes, you need to migrate them over to Doc Attach items. Microsoft has a separate Migration tool for the task that you can download from Customer/PartnerSource.<br /><br />Microsoft put it this way:<br />The ability to attach documents to record level notes in the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 R2 application has been done as OLE objects. This functionality has been replaced with the Document Attachment Functionality. This functionality will allow users to attach documents to the notes that will be stored directly in the Microsoft SQL Server Database.<br /><br />The Migration Utility runs as a separate application and can be obtained from PartnerSource/CustomerSource. The utility will allow existing users to migrate the files that have already been attached to Notes using the existing OLE functionality into the new Document Attach functionality.<br /><br />LeslieDynamics Confessorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06555435567985477366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2902800390575811159.post-84411262803061530352014-09-24T12:27:54.003-05:002014-09-24T12:27:54.003-05:00Did this functionality change with GP 2013 R2?

I have a shared location set up for Notes, have files in that location, and have that location correctly pathed in the dex.ini file. However, I no longer have the paperclip within the note screen. I only have Attach & Delete. Thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
