How to attach multiple attachments in info path form as a Hyperlink and storing in share point document library?

Hi,

I have designed a infopath form which is having multiple attachment control and user will upload multiple documents on it.

The problem in sharepoint infopath form is user's are unable to attach large files which is more than 5 MB (since default limit is 4096KB).

I know we can increase the User session data for Infopath in central admin .But that will impact our server CPU since we want to increase to 50 MB.

I got the other approach which is like storing the documents in sharepoint document library and adding the attachments as a hyperlink in infopath form which will reduce the size of the form and will not affect performance.

Can anyone please provide the detailed explanation and method here(if possible with screenshots)

Thanks & regards,

Poovi

Hello,

I also had same requirement earlier and what i did, i have given the doc library link to infopath form to upload file. Then create new web service data connection to get files from library to infopath and show as hyperlink. Basically you can add one repeating section with hyperlink control to bind the files in IP.

You may refer this blog and it has explained exactly same approach
