Linking to external files



We store all the documents related to a claim number, claim 12345 would have
a folder 12345 where we would store all documents sent out or received
related to this claim as pdf docs on our shared "L" drive.



Is it possible to open a report in Access 2003 and then view thumb nails of
these pdf documents that relate to each claim number? I have seen it done
in other software packages, so can it be done in Access and if so where do I
start?



Or could I buy an add on to do this?



Thanks Bob
