Default Connection to external file

Hello

I've got a database that get's is information from an foxpro database. In
access i'm tryign to associate to each record a file, .pdf or .tiff, with all
information of the client. If i try to put the link connection the link is
the same for all records.

How can i make the link to appears only the file that belongs to the client
that is selected?

Can you help me, please.


Thanks

I noticed that nobody answered.

If I make a suggestion, in my opinion, your question was not understandable
at all. Most of it was not even understandable enought to ask questions
about, but a few might be:

Since Access and FoxPro are both database applications, exactly what do you
mean by "Gets" it's information from FoxPro. For example:

- Importing the tables from Fox Pro
- Linking Using Access's external data source linking tools

- Define "Client" Is that a real world customer/client? Or referring to a
computer/databased object or front end?
