What I am trying to do is I am working with trees as data points. There are multiple trees of the same type so I took one picture and am trying to link all trees of the same type to one picture. I am using 10.1 version of the software. So I was able to mass attach the images to the trees but at the cost of grossly inflating the database size. Because as discovered for each tree of the same type it added the picture in each time. So instead of adding only 31 images it added 250 images. I also want to be able to do it in mass batches as it would be to time consuming to do it one by one for some of the larger areas.
With the pictures at about 4 MB each and the fact that this is two zones of seventeen, and only 250 of the ~10,000 trees in my work area. At this rate the database will be way to big to easily transfer and deal with in the manner I want it to be. This being able to upload quickly and downloaded by users via the internet who may need a new version of the database.
Ive looked around on the web for about an hour and came up with many help related things about attachments. But none that lead me to what I wanted/needed. So any help would be appreciated and in advance thank you for the help.
