Which version of SalesLogix? InsertFileAttachment brings up the insert attachment dialog. If you're importing 100 attachments, seeing that 100 times isn't going to be fun even if you can set all of the variables.

You can roll your own attachment routine rather easily and it involves these steps:
1) Get new AttachmentID
2) Copy SourceFileName to Documents\!AttachmentIDSourceFileName
3) Create attachment record
4) Call LogSendFileAttachment (only necessary if you have remotes)

#2: Get the Documents\ folder from the branch options table for network clients. Remotes default to Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\SalesLogix\Documents\.
#3: Create a record in the client and copy the output exactly.
#4: LogSendFileAttachment AccountID, !AttachmendIDSourceFileName (FileName column of the attachment record).

If you're importing multiple attachments this is the preferred method to prevent popping up the dialog multiple times. This also can ensure that users don't bork the process.

Jeremy is right. It does work, just for a different purpose than what you're thinking. You'll want to do the steps that Jeremy outlined in his post to import attachments.
