I'm trying to extract all the attachments contained within each record in a table:
As each record may have multiple attachments, I would like to loop through each record, creating a folder on disk with that record's primary key, and then dump each attachment belonging to that record, in that folder. This is the code I have so far (Partly taken from here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff835669.aspx) but it's saying EOF doesn't exist for my 'Attachments' collection.
Dim database As DAO.database
Dim table As DAO.Recordset
Dim PONum As String
Dim folder As String
Set database = CurrentDb
Set table = database.OpenRecordset("Purchasing")
With table ' For each record in table
Do Until .EOF 'exit with loop at end of table
Attachments = table.Fields("Attachments").Value 'get list of attachments
PKey = table.Fields("PKey").Value ' get record key
folder = "C:\" & PKey & "\" 'initialise folder name to create
If Len(Dir(folder, vbDirectory)) = 0 Then ' if folder does not exist then create it
MkDir (folder)
End If
' Loop through each of the record's attachments'
While Not Attachments.EOF 'exit while loop at end of record's attachments
' Save current attachment to disk in the above-defined folder.
Attachments.Fields("FileData").SaveToFile _
folder
Attachments.MoveNext 'move to next attachment
Wend
.MoveNext 'move to next record
Loop
End With
