1 To get Manage Attachments Window dialogue box
First you must get up the Manage Attachments Window dialogue box.
_(i) For a new Thread
Either
_1_(i) _a) Select Paper clip icon
Or
_1_(i) _b) Scroll down and select manage attachments
a)PaperClipIcon or b)ManageAttachmants.JPG : https://imgur.com/YFEUDUh
(ii) For a Reply or when Editing an existing post
_ Hit Reply button or Edit Post Button

Using this dialogue box window you can manage your attachments
2 To add a File to the current post:
Steps like the following are needed to attach a file to the current post. It may look a little bit different on your computer
_ Add Files.JPG : https://imgur.com/hIdo0Av
_ SelectFiles.JPG : https://imgur.com/9XZJuig
_ UploadFiles5.JPG : https://imgur.com/f0PXtVA
_ Done6.JPG : https://imgur.com/a6oFeIQ
That's it!...:)
The file should now have been attached.

Practice before posting in a main Thread:
You can practice uploading a file by starting a new test thread here:
http://www.excelfox.com/forum/forumd...p/17-Test-Area
Give the Thread a title such as …"Just testing. No Reply needed"
Test Area new Thread 1 .JPG , Test Area new Thread just testing .JPG https://imgur.com/S3uneWf , https://imgur.com/gUFHcBp
You can then practice uploading attachments or you can also practice any other posting and editing features, such as code tags ( http://www.excelfox.com/forum/showth...0690#post10690 )
_._____________________________
Alternative to attaching a file: post a link to your file held at a file share site:
See here for example:
http://www.excelfox.com/forum/showth...age8#post10725
Or if you are familiar with file sharing sites go direct here

If it does not find one, it will return "". If it finds one, then variable FileName will be given its name, ( just the name, not the entire file path and name)
'Do do Looping while you find the file names you want =========
Do While Not FileName = "" ' Dir Function will return "" if it finds no new File names of the ones looking for. If it does find a File name, then use that filename in the closed workbook reference which you put in a spare cell, for example, A1

Excel and Excel VBA , usually has no issues if you use the full reference in situations where one of the shorter versions may have been sufficient. But on the other hand, you may get unexpected problems if you used a shorter version , and Excel then guesses wrongly for the remaining part, which I believe it always adds internally, ( possibly at some compiling stage ) , before it uses it.
