Drag and Drop with vLookup

[Tony Bowes]

We have a document library attached to the employees form using a vLookup. Is there a way to have many files added at once? Ideally we would like to get drag and drop active on the vLookup, although I’m expecting this to be unlikely as the form doesn’t seem to be touched when doing a normal drag & drop directly onto to the document library.

Hi,
If you use the “add new folder” option, and you set the folder metadata so you can retrieve the folders in the vLookup query.

You can then use the “Show open folder in new window button” option in the vLookup configuration to open the folder in a new window. From her you can drag and drop documents into this folder, and have them show in the vLookup column.

You find some more here

Let me know how this works out.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Yes, that looks like it will do. I had misread that section believing it to be only for adding sub folders to the vLookup.
