Thanks for the reply Prasad,

I'd already tried using the code from the Product module (as that has a 
specific attachment field for images) but trying any of the available UI 
types (including 69) for an attachment didn't work.

I've swapped in the code from HelpDesk.php but this doesn't seem to be 
any more helpful and there isn't a field on the Trouble Ticket to add an 
attachment directly anyway.

Anyway I did a quick test with a UI Type 61 and the code from the 
HelpDesk module... The save_module() and subsequent 
insertIntoAttachment() functions are activating ok, but the $_FILE 
superglobal always seems to be empty. I can save attachments in the 
Document module so why can't I do it from here???

TIA

Al
