    Noushad,

    If you haven't migrated your notes, then you should be able to continue use the OLE Object implementation to attach documents to your various transactions or master records. You only lose those capabilities when you switch your system to use the Document Attach feature. The attachment button drop-down in your picture is only telling you that you have a choice between OLE Objects and Document Attach for that transaction, since you did not complete the migration.

    Hi,

    The old ole notes need to be visible as it is and new attachment through new functionality.  But I can find only blank screen when click on OLE object button.  I verified OLE path in dex.ini, it is correct.  Please help me how to find the ole notes.  Since I have old and huge ole notes, it will increase the database if migrate.  I have gone through document that GP2015 R2 not supported ole notes then how we can view the old ole notes.  Kindly help to find solution.

    Regards,

    Noushad
