Attachment field in smart group filters

Post by Simon »

Hi Jon,

Is there a way, or would it be feasible, to directly select references that have no attached file (or at least no link to an attached file)?
At the moment I have a clunky workaround involving starring all citations that have an attachment then creating a smart group of unstarred citations. Obviously, there are better uses of the ratings system than that :?

Sure. Make a new SQL Smart Group and elect to use the prepared group called "No attachments".

Thanks Jon, the SQL & REGEX features have opened up a whole new dimension to Bookends for me... late to the party, I wish I'd explored that years ago :oops:
