I have a situation where an uploaded file can be referenced by multiple records. When someone updates the file in a single records it deletes the existing file and adds the new one (as it should) - this results in broken links for all the other records.
Does anyone have a quick idea how to stop the delete of the file, I checked the "BeforeDeleteFile" event but it doesn't have a capacity to prevent the delete before it happens.
FYI CCS 4.3 and classic ASP.
Cheers Edd

I would make a function that runs after the upload is complete
update tablename SET filename = 'newfilename' WHERE filename = 'oldfilename'

Still does not prevent the old file from being deleted.
I didn't explain myself very well. I have the capacity to copy records, 99% of the time the uploaded image file remains the same across all these records so all is sweet. But occasionally I get a user who looks at a copied record and says I want to change ONLY THAT records image. When they upload a new image it automatically deletes the old image.
I don't care about orphaned images I just want the upload component to stop deleting the existing image.
I have a workaround involving backups prior to upload and restore after but I thought there might be an easier way.
