How version history affects list items that contain attachments in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0
INTRODUCTION
This article describes how version history affects list items that contain attachments in Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services 3.0.
MORE INFORMATION
Assume that you have turned on the following features under
Versioning settings for a list in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0:
- Create a version each time you edit an item in this list
- Require content approval for submitted items
When you add an item that contains an attachment to the list that has these versioning features enabled, the following behavior occurs:
- You can access the attachment even when the item has not been approved.
- Assume that you rename an existing item, you delete the existing attachment, and then you add a new attachment. In this case, when you view the version history, the previous item is associated with the new attachment.
- When you restore a previous list item, the previous item is not associated with the previous attachment.
This behavior occurs because attachment versioning is not supported for lists in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0. If you want to use
Version History to keep track of attachments in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, create a document library, and then enable versioning features.
For more information about how to create a document library, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
