That's only true for a JET DB. Gary is probably thinking of something he did using a non-JET BE. But he might be thinking WAY back when there used to be "attachment fatigue". For no rhyme or reason, attachments would no longer work. Many developers back then refreshed attachments every time the app fired up for that reason.
