I am using Dreamweaver with Coldfusion 7 MX and an Access database. I would like to offer an "attachment area" with each record so a user can upload a file to the server and have that attachment associated with the record. Can somebody offer me advice on how best to do this?

It's going to depend highly on the structure of your database. You'll need at least:
1. A unique identifier assigned to each 'attachment'.
2. A table to store the identifier and associated 'attachment' name/whatever.
3. A field in the table your 'record' is in to store the identifier.

You really need to provide some more specifics about your data/database/app for a more specific answer.
